Maison Arnaud Mortet
About Maison Arnaud Mortet
Arnaud Mortet is the negociant label of Domaine Denis Mortet. Arnaud created his own label after getting access to a 4-hectare estate from a retiring grower. While he buys the fruit from the grower, he exerts full control over the vineyard, applying the same standards as his family vines, which really makes Arnaud Mortet a “negociant” label in name only. The benefit of all this is that when compared to the other Grand Crus from the family estate, the Arnaud Mortet label is much more affordable.

The 2019 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru has a very well defined, quite vivid bouquet with blueberry, loganberry, pitted black olive and light sea spray aromas. This is one of the best aromatics that I have encountered from this Grand Cru in 2019. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit. It is actually quite "Mazis" in style thanks to the structure, though it closes down a touch towards the almost surly finish. This is a "serious" Charmes-Chambertin from Arnaud Mortet that deserves several years in bottle.Inc. TAX€3,904.38 -
Vinous (92-94)
The 2020 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, 50% whole bunch and 50% new oak, has an elegant bouquet that is cut from a different cloth compared to the Mazoyères that Mortet insisted should be vinified separately as they are two different terroirs. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins, fine balanced, maybe not quite as sophisticated or as nuanced as the Mazoyères yet certainly long.Inc. TAX€4,082.92 -
Vinous (90-92)
Using 70% whole bunch to compare with the domaine example, the 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru is defined by those stems on the nose. The palate is medium-bodied and comes across more peppery than the domaine version, quite defined but maybe without the sensuality of the domaine.Inc. TAX€2,596.38 -

The 2016 Mazoyères-Chambertin Grand Cru is the darkest of four wines tasted from this vineyard. It has a very seductive bouquet with pure dark cherry and plummy fruit, some high quality new oak that is neatly enmeshed. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe tannins, well-judged acidity, perhaps more modern in style than its peers, but you cannot deny the precision, the delineation and mineralité in the finish. Great persistence here, a Mazoyères with pedigree. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.Inc. TAX€4,604.77 -
