2018 Morey St Denis Clos de la Bussiere
Buying options
Tasting notes
Tiny hints of reduction giving a smoky note. Very fine tannins, bright acid. Not quite opening up, but ajar, at least. Not showing the greatness you might quite hope for just yet, but that's burgundy for you. Worth leaving for the benefit of the doubt! (RH)

Revisited from bottle, the 2018 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Clos de la Bussière offers up aromas of cherries, raspberries, Indian spices and creamy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, ample and muscular, it's firm and structured, with rich, chalky tannins and a ripe core of fruit.
