Clos Saint-Denis

Clos Saint-Denis is a vineyard covering around 6 hectares in the Côte de Nuits region of Burgundy. The land is used exclusively for producing Pinot Noir red wines on calcareous clay soil.

The Collégiale de St-Denis de Vergy church established its ownership of this land in the 12th century. This religious connection shaped the vineyard's management and reputation for centuries.

The name comes from the Collégiale de St-Denis de Vergy church that once oversaw this land. You can see how this historical connection shapes the identity of the place today.

The vineyard sits on east-facing slopes where morning sun helps the grapes ripen. Visitors should be prepared for uneven ground and wear solid footwear, especially after rain.

The eastern slopes contain iron-rich marl that gives the wine mineral notes. This geological feature makes wines from here taste distinctly different from neighboring vineyards.
