Description

Formerly based in the village of Morey-Saint-Denis, Domaine Jacky Truchot-Martin was a wine producer which operated until 2005. The estate consisted of six hectares of vineyards in three Burgundy appellations. Gevrey-Chambertin, Morey-Saint-Denis and Chambolle-Musigny. After founder Jacky Truchot decided to retire, the property was sold off and the business closed down. His wines have now become very scarce and highly sought-after by collectors. This particular cuvée hails from the Premier Cru Les Blanchards and it is one of the last vintages produced by Jacky himself.
