Morlet Family Vineyards
Wine has always been a way of life for Luc, who grew up working on his family’s Pinot Noir and Chardonnay domaine, Pierre Morlet & Fils, in Avenay-Val-d’Or, Champagne. Born in Epernay, France to a four-generation winegrower family, Luc, as a child, enjoyed learning about all of the practical and technical aspects of vineyard farming and winemaking.
In 2006, Luc began crafting wines, in limited quantities, from unique vineyards of Napa Valley and Sonoma County under the “Morlet Family Vineyards” label. The Morlet Family has three Chardonnay and three Pinot Noir wines from the Sonoma Coast, one Syrah wine from Bennett Valley and a “Pessac-Leognan new world” Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc-Muscadelle blend wine from Sonoma County. Finally, Cabernet Sauvignon wines from the benches of Napa Valley’s Oakville and of Knights Valley began with the 2007 vintage.
