    The Domaine Pierre Morey vineyard is rooted in an exceptional terroir, characterized by clay-limestone soils, ideal for the flourishing of Pinot Noir. The vines, some several decades old, benefit from optimal sun exposure, promoting harmonious ripening of the grapes. The diversity of microclimates and plots allows for the production of wines with great aromatic richness. Rigorous yield management and respect for natural cycles guarantee consistent quality and a true reflection of their terroir. Each harvest is an opportunity to celebrate the expertise and passion of the winemakers, who strive to reveal the very essence of Volnay.

    Owner and history

    Today, the estate is run by the Morey family, who carry on Pierre Morey's legacy with passion and dedication. Renowned for their expertise, the owners are committed to producing wines that reflect the authenticity of the Burgundy terroir. They have successfully blended tradition and modernity, integrating sustainable practices while preserving the wines' unique character.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Pierre Morey is carried out with meticulous care. The carefully selected grapes are destemmed before being fermented in wooden vats. This traditional method encourages the expression of aromas and tannins. Aging takes place in oak barrels, some of which are new, adding a touch of complexity without masking the fruit. The wine rests on its lees, benefiting from gentle stirring to enrich its texture and depth. Each step is designed to guarantee the integrity of the wine, while respecting the specific characteristics of each vintage.
