Description

Formerly based in the village of Morey-Saint-Denis, Domaine Jacky Truchot-Martin was a wine producer in operation until 2005. The estate consisted of 6 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 rare and highly sought-after by collectors. This is the very last vintage of ‘Clos de la Roche’ that he produced, which was an astounding year for Burgundy.

As one of the final vintages made by Jacky Truchot before his retirement, this wine holds a special significance and is highly prized by collectors and enthusiasts. The 2005 vintage showcases complex flavors of dark cherries, forest floor, spices, and a hint of truffle.
