Product Description:
Caroline Morey Santenay Rouge 2024 is a refined village-level red Burgundy shaped by the domaine’s light-handed approach to Pinot Noir. The wine is produced from hillside parcels in Cornières and Le Chainey, with Le Chainey situated high in the southern sector of Santenay beside Premier Cru Grand Clos Rousseau. These elevated sites contribute freshness, delicacy and an energetic expression of red fruit. The wine is matured in oak barrels, with approximately 30% new oak used for the 2024 release.
Established in 2014, Domaine Caroline Morey works approximately seven hectares across Santenay, Chassagne-Montrachet and Beaune. The estate follows sustainable viticulture and uses a restrained winemaking philosophy intended to preserve freshness, finesse and the identity of each vineyard. Red wines are fermented in vats for approximately 15 to 25 days with minimal intervention, while the proportion of whole clusters is adjusted according to the vineyard and vintage. The wines are bottled unfiltered and sealed with natural cork and wax to encourage graceful development in bottle.
The 2024 Santenay Rouge displays bright sour cherry, raspberry and red cherry aromas supported by remarkably fine tannins. Its relatively light colour reflects Caroline Morey’s elegant house style rather than any lack of flavour or structure. Fresh, crunchy fruit carries through the palate, giving the wine clarity, energy and immediate charm. Supple tannins and a clean, refreshing finish complete this graceful expression of Santenay Pinot Noir.
