Winemaking
«Les Blanchards» is named after the soil, which consists of small limestone stones, and is a Premier Cru vineyard located in the commune of Morey-Saint-Denis. The vineyard, facing east and southeast, is situated at an altitude of 250 meters. From vine cultivation to winemaking, each process is tailored to the specific vintage to produce the best wines while preserving the terroir's typicity. The aging takes place in oak barrels, with one-third being new oak.
Our tasting note
Light ruby color with purplish to garnet hues. The nose is dominated by aromas of small red and black fruits. On the palate, it shows a beautiful balance between acidity and tannins. It is a structured wine full of energy, impressive fruit flavors, and longevity.
Amiot et Fils
The Amiot family has been dedicated to viticulture and the art of winemaking for over ten generations. Pierre significantly shaped the estate by designing the first bottle label in 1976, giving it a distinctive identity. Since the 1980s, his son Jean-Louis has continued this tradition with passion and expertise. He is supported by his wife Chantal and their son Léon, who will follow in his footsteps. Domaine Amiot et Fils, located in Morey-Saint-Denis, spans 5 hectares, from Gevrey-Chambertin to Chambolle-Musigny. The estate offers a complete range of Burgundy's four appellation levels, from «Apellation régionale» to «Grand Cru».
