Lively and charming, the 2018 Givry Clos de Mortières is bursting with scents of cherry, berry, blackcurrant and spice. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and succulent, it's framed by fine, powdery tannins. A very fine achievement. (Wine Advocate 2020) An innate elegance for this delicate Givry...

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2022) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :
Located in Givry, this small 2.5-hectare estate is run by the Devillard family, who also own Château de Chamirey. It comprises 3 parcels, two in the village appellation, including Clos Mortière, and one in the Premier Cru Servoisine. The vines are cultivated using sustainable methods, under the guidance of Enrico Peyron, with manual harvesting and long ageing. The plots are located close to each other and in excellent positions within the appellation. Quantities are limited, but produced with the same care as the estate's mercureys.

About the domain :
This estate owes its name to the Abbey of La Ferté, the first daughter of the Abbey of Cîteaux, built in the early 7th century. Cultivated by Cistercian monks until the French Revolution, the 2.4 ha estate was taken over in 1995 by Bertrand Devillard (Ch. de Chamirey, Dom. des Perdrix).

Rated wine (2019 guide) 91/100
About the wine:
Here, the wood is a little more pronounced in a complex nose offering notes of ripe blackcurrant, spices and poached plums. The mid-palate density is superb, with lovely aromatic notes contributing to a velvety texture nuanced by a slightly saline, youthful finish. A quality achievement. 2023+
