Description :

Here there is also noticeable if not dominant wood spice that frames the admirably elegant, restrained and very pure, cool and almost airy red berry fruit and intense earth notes that grandly introduce the big-bodied, powerful and mineral-driven flavors that possess strikingly good definition

Domaine Tortochot

Allen Meadows’s Burgendy reference :

"For readers who may be unfamiliar with Domaine Tortochot, this approximately 11 ha domaine is now operated and managed by Chantal Tortochot-Michel. The wines are relatively old school in terms of style and structure though they do see plenty of wood at the grand cru level, which is to say 100%.

Mme Tortochot told me that she was very happy with the way her 2005s had turned out and I have to agree wholeheartedly as I was quite impressed. It’s clear that quality is on the upswing here and this is a domaine worth following. Moreover, given the extremely reasonable prices the wines typically sell for, they are bargains, a descriptor one rarely hears uttered in the same breath with Côte de Nuits grand cru. "

The Domaine Tortochot produces great burgundy wines Premiers Crus but also Grands Crus like The Chambertin, The Mazis-Chambertin, The Clos Vougeot or The Charmes-Chambertin. The better Premiers Crus are The Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champeaux and The Lavaux Saint-Jacques.

Notes de dégustation

Allen Meadows : 94 points
"Here there is also noticeable if not dominant wood spice that frames the admirably elegant, restrained and very pure, cool and almost airy red berry fruit and intense earth notes that grandly introduce the big-bodied, powerful and mineral-driven flavors that possess strikingly good definition and punch on the austere and stunningly long finish. This too is a bit oaky at present but there is really impressive underlying material. Bravo." (Jan 2008)
