Domaine GERARD PEIRAZEAU & FILS Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru "Les Genavrieres" 2022

750ml

SGD 161.00

Rare Wine

Genavrières is the super first-class vineyard in Morey-St-Denis, and half of its area belongs to the Clos de la Roche special vineyard. The terrain here is relatively steep and erosion is significant. The owner said that the soil from the downhill slope must be moved uphill every five to seven years. This wine has a full body, with flavors dominated by black cherry, plum and various spices, but the texture is silky and lively, showing a style similar to Clos de la Roche.

Tasting Profile

  • Body: Medium-bodied
  • Tannins: Tannins are more pronounced but still well-integrated and fine-grained, offering a more noticeable structure and a pleasant, silky texture.
  • Acidity: Acidity is medium-plus, providing a crucial balance to the potentially riper fruit and contributing to the wine's overall freshness and aging potential.
  • Sweetness: Dry

Tasting Notes: On the palate, expect a more concentrated and layered expression of red and dark fruit. Ripe cherry, raspberry, and black cherry notes are likely to be prominent, possibly with hints of plum. The floral notes might be more intense and complex, perhaps suggesting deeper rose aromas or even a touch of violet. The signature earthy and savory character of Morey-Saint-Denis should be more evident in this Premier Cru, potentially displaying notes of underbrush, forest floor, or a subtle gamey complexity. The "Les Genavrières" vineyard is known for its stony and mineral soils, so expect a distinct minerality to underpin the fruit, contributing to the wine's elegance, focus, and a lingering, nuanced finish that echoes the fruit, earth, and mineral elements.

Discover the Winery: Domaine Gérard Peirazeau et Fils

Jules Groffier (1898-1974) acquired the first vineyard holdings of the domaine, which were later divided between his children: Robert Groffier and Bernadette Groffier. Bernadette married into the Peirazeau family and established “Domaine Peirazeau-Groffier.” Laurent Peirazeau, grandson of Bernadette and son of Gérard, decided to expand the family’s production from the 2019 vintage onward under the label “Gérard Peirazeau & Fils”. Laurent, along with his partner Sophie Charlopin, who comes from a prominent wine family herself, manages a 3.65-hectare vineyard spread across 3 villages, including Morey St Denis, Chambolle-Musigny, and Gevrey-Chambertin. Although the vineyard is relatively small, it boasts exceptional terroirs and plot locations. The domain produces 13 appellations, 5 of which are among the most celebrated Grand Crus, including Chambertin Clos de Bèze, Charmes Chambertin, Clos de la Roche, Clos Saint-Denis, and Bonnes Mares. The majority of the vineyards consist of old vines, with an average age of 60 years. The domaine practices sustainable cultivation using organic or biocontrol products, but is not certified. Plowing is limited, and weeding is rare. In the cellar, Peirazeau does not use any added products; only native yeasts are used for fermentation. The red wines, except Coteaux Bourguignons and Bourgogne Pinot Noir, are all aged in oak barrels.
