Clos de Tart: 900 Years, 4 Owners

How to Complete

3 steps curated by Wine Memories

1. 📜 1

   Stand at the Nuns' Gate

   history Free

   The original entrance built by Cistercian nuns in the 12th century.

   Even without a tasting appointment, you can view the historic gate from Route des Grands Crus. The stone archway dates from the 1140s. Look for the carved cross above the entrance - it marks the boundary of the nuns' enclosure.

   Taste Inside the Monopole (Epic)

   Optional

   wine $$$$

   Book a private tasting at one of the most exclusive domaines in Burgundy.

   Email visits@clos-de-tart.com at least 3 months in advance. Tastings are rare and expensive (~€200+ per person). You'll taste 2-3 vintages in the medieval cellar. The waiting list is long - try contacting a Burgundy wine tour company for group visits.

   Walk the Vineyard Wall

   adventure Free

   The enclosing wall has stood since the 12th century.

   The vineyard wall runs along the D974 road in Morey-Saint-Denis. Walk the ~800m perimeter. Unlike Clos de Vougeot (which has 80+ owners), every vine inside this wall belongs to one domaine - a rarity in Burgundy.
