Tasting Notes

Jancis Robinson Julia Harding - 22 Oct 20
Cask sample. Deepish crimson. Ripe but fresh cherry fruit. So pure on the nose. That lovely Morey crossroads between fruit and a touch floral. The tannins are paper-fine, like layers of tissue paper – is this the effect of the ceramic vessels Magnien used to age part of his wines? Elegant, fresh, persistent. (JH)

Morey-Saint-Denis Fine Wine

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.
