Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 16
Good medium-deep red. Expressive aromas of red fruits, brown spices and mocha; this could only be from Morey-Saint-Denis. Fat, silky and sweet, showing sexy spicy complexity and a hint of rose petal to the red fruit flavors. Conveys lovely balance and richness without evidence of _surmaturité.

Morey-Saint-Denis

Morey-Saint-Denis, a prestigious appellation in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, is known for its elegant, well-structured Pinot Noir wines that balance the power of Gevrey-Chambertin and the finesse of Chambolle-Musigny. These wines feature flavours of red and black fruits, earthy spices, and floral notes, with refined tannins and excellent ageing potential. Home to five Grand Cru vineyards, including Clos de Tart and Clos Saint-Denis, top producers like Domaine Dujac, Domaine Ponsot, and Domaine des Lambrays are celebrated for their traditional winemaking and expressive wines.
