2010 Domaine Arlaud Père & Fils Morey-Saint-Denis Les Millandes 1er Cru

Bright red-ruby. Reticent aromas of slightly diffuse dried fruits, iron and brown spices. More vibrant in the mouth, with red fruit flavors perked up by wild herbs, spices and a suggestion of violet. Finishes spicy and persistent, with good texture and length. Doesn't quite come alive today, though. (I'll withhold judgment on the Chambolle-Musigny Sentiers as my sample was a bit tired and dry.)
