Morey Saint-Denis 1er Cru Clos Sorbè David Duband (Domaine) 2013

The wine

Morey-Saint-Denis Premier Cru Clos Sorbé from David Duband is produced from 50-year-old vines and élevaged for 14 months (40% new wood). It has an open and intense nose with dark fruit aromas and coffee notes. The palate reveals rich tannins and a fresh, mineral structure. It is very well balanced overall and the finish has plenty of volume. This wine pairs very well with delicate meats (such as veal and poultry).

About the Producer David Duband

The domaine was founded in 1991 by the businessman François Feuillet, the owner of the Trigano brand which is known for its caravans and trailers. He fell in love with the region and entrusted the development of the wines to David Duband, who had already harvested grapes for the cooperative of Beaune. The domaine is spread over 17 hectares, including Nuits-Saint-Georges, Vosne-Romanée, Clos-de-la-Roche and Charmes-Chambertin. All the ingredients are combined to perfect the classicism of Burgundy: the domaine is certified as organic and, in 2008, the choice was made to vinify non-destemmed grapes. Since 1991, the winemaker has evolved much in the style of his wines which have gained in precision and elegance. They are now one of the greatest wines of Côte d'Or and are on the menus of most French three star Michelin Guide restaurants.
