En Primeur | Domaine Truchetet
This small 6 hectare estate in the village of Premeaux just outside Nuits St Georges has been one of our most exciting recent discoveries. Morgan Truchetet, wife Pauline, and his sister Julie took over the running of the domaine in 2019. Pauline has been a close friend for many years, first during her time working at Domaine de l’Arlot and then assisting Bruno Colin in Chassagne Montrachet. Quite a CV! The estate wines are 100% focused around Nuits St Georges and, since taking over, Morgan has supplemented the range by buying in fruit to vinify under a negociant label for appellations where they don’t own vineyards. For these he follows the same quality criteria and ideals as for the domaine.

Goedhuis, Decemeber 2023
A single parcel site called Les Seuvrées on the borders to Morey St Denis and produces a more refined and scented expression of Gevrey. An abundance of wild hedgerow fruits, there is a warmth and generosity about the wine, showing the characteristics of the vintage, rounded tannins and a rewarding juicy succulence at the end.
