Domaine Pierre Morey
- Vin Rouge- Classement : 1er cru
- Surface (ha) : 0.14
- Année moyenne de plantation: : 1965
- Cépage : Pinot Noir
Belle parcelle pentue de coteau, bien ensoleillée grâce à une exposition sud-est.
La partie basse offre un sol argilo-calcaire et caillouteux laissant place progressivement à un calcaire plus marneux très blanc dans la partie supérieure ; confirmant ainsi très bien l’intuition de nos ancêtres pour les meilleurs terroirs.

Special Report 2018 Burgundy Scores – Tim Atkin 2019-10 89 points
Burgundy Report – Bill Nanson 2020-12
Below Santenots, deeper soil, flatter land. We rarely have such roundness in this cuvée.
« Deeply fruited, faintly reductive. Wider, more incisive, lovely texture with a suggestion of tannin but no grain. Less overtly sweet after the Monthelie. A delicious finish – that’s completely lovely ! »
Burgundy Report – Bill Nanson 2018-10
Only second time made separately as a small parcel so has usually gone into the villages.
« More aromatic width and a little more saline. All destemmed. Fuller, some peppery width to a fine complexity, long, this is excellent. »
VINOUS Antonio Galloni – Neal Martin 2019-01
« The 2017 Monthelie 1er cru is a cru that debuted in 2015 (there was no in 2016) and comes from Les Clous, though this not on the label as Anne Morey told me that it will hopefully be augmented with another 1er cru in the future. It has an attractive raspberry and cranberry scented bouquet. The palate is well balanced with crisp tannin, the white soils mparting a sense of strictness for a Monthelie but with decent minéralité on the finish. Very fine. Ywo and a half barrel only. »

Deeper and more serious, the 2017 Monthélie 1er Cru wafts from the glass with notes of ripe berry fruit, peonies, cinnamon and forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, lively and precise, with a sweet core of fruit and chalky structuring tannins, it’s a classic example of the appellation.
Burgundy Report – Bill Nanson 2016-11
« Also floral, deeper too, slightly narrower. A little whole cluster here. More complexity, a hint more structure and muscle. Fine bubbly complexity. Also really excellent wine and it will need a hint more time, but super all the same. »
Decanter Magazine – William Kelley 2016-10
« A mere two barrels of this wine were bottled separately for the first time in 2015, but in 2016 quantities are so small the Les Clous will be blended into the village Monthelie. Though the wine’s DNA is the same, the 1er cru cuvée is more complete and rich than the village bottling, with a fragrant bouquet of red cherry and rose and an elegant, detailed palate impression. » 91 points
