Morey St. Denis is one of my favourite appelations. It offers wines of fullness, yet with a touch of lushness and seductive perfume, but has never achieved the fame of either of its neighbours - Gevrey to the North and Chambolle to the South. As a result the wines can in my opinion offer better value.

Morey has a confusing selection of twenty 1er Crus, accounting for only 33 ha in total, and five Grand Crus, one of which (Bonnes Mares) is shared with Chambolle-Musigny.
The line of Grand Crus follows on from that of Gevrey, with the best (mid-slope) vineyards being :
- Clos de la Roche
- Clos St. Denis
- Clos des Lambrays
- Clos de Tart
- Bonnes Mares
Of the 1er Cru vineyards I would pick out the following, all from the Northern part of the commune, as very good wines, in the right hands :
- Aux Charmes
- Clos des Ormes
- Les Faconnieres
- Les Millandes
