Tasting notes
A refined and expressive Pinot Noir with lifted aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry, framed by subtle notes of violet, rose petal, and forest floor. On the palate, it is poised and elegant, showing bright acidity, silky tannins, and a mineral backbone that brings definition and length. Delicate hints of spice, earth, and a touch of oak add complexity without overshadowing the fruit. The finish is graceful, persistent, and beautifully balanced, reflecting the finesse and depth of its Bourgogne origins.

Viticulture

The 1er Cru “Les Millandes” comes from a well-regarded vineyard site in the Côte de Nuits, where the Pinot Noir vines benefit from ideal growing conditions and classic Burgundian soils. The wine typically shows a fine balance of depth, freshness, and structure, with aromas of red and dark berries, floral notes, subtle spice, and earthy nuances. On the palate, it is often refined and precise, with silky tannins, lively acidity, and a long, mineral finish. This is a nuanced and beautifully crafted Morey-Saint-Denis that combines concentration with finesse, making it a fine expression of its premier cru origin.
Oenology
The oenology of Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru “Les Millandes” reflects the character of a refined Burgundy Pinot Noir from a premier cru site in Morey-Saint-Denis. The wine is typically marked by a careful balance between freshness, structure, and aromatic precision, with a style that highlights the elegance of the terroir. In the glass, it can show bright red and dark berry notes, such as cherry, raspberry, and blackcurrant, often supported by floral tones, subtle spice, and earthy nuances. With ageing, it may develop more complex layers of forest floor, truffle, and gently savoury notes. On the palate, it is usually medium-bodied with fine tannins and a lively acidity that gives definition and length. The texture tends to be silky yet persistent, combining purity of fruit with a mineral backbone that is characteristic of the Côte de Nuits. Vinification in Burgundy for this kind of wine generally aims to preserve the delicacy of the fruit while adding depth and ageing potential, often resulting in a wine that can be enjoyed relatively young but also rewarded by several years of cellaring.
