Tasting notes
The 2016 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru has a fleshy nose with loose-knit red fruit, potent scorched earth aromas with a slight torrefactory element. The palate is medium-bodied with sweet tannins on the entry and a fine bead of acidity. It seems quite forward in style and is just missing some depth on the finish. One of the earlier drinking wines from Morey. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.

Good dark red. Seductive scents of briary berries, brown spices, smoky underbrush and wild herbs. At once silky and intense on entry, then shapely and penetrating in the middle palate, offering a captivating combination of sweet dark fruits and saline earth tones. This concentrated, long wine finishes with serious but suave tannins.
