clos des lambrays
Located in Morey-Saint-Denis on the Route des Grands Crus, Clos des Lambrays is one of the oldest and most prestigious vineyards of Burgundy, which earned it the nickname of “jewel of the Côte de Nuits”.
Originated from the almost monopoly of the estate within the Grand Cru, the Clos des Lambrays is a wide ownership if you compared it to the Bourgogne scale. The plot is far from homogeneous. Its smooth slopes offer a diversity of sun exposures that are key to the complexity of the wine. At the top, the Clos is composed mainly of marls whereas the bottom clay mixes with limestone.
An “iron hand in a velvet glove”, with aromas of black fruits, this elegant Grand Cru was defined as being one of the 100 best wines in the world.
