Just exceptional, mature, grand cru Burgundy - color starting to show signs of age but not a hint of oxidation or decline and this will be at peak for quite some time given the freshness, acidity and remaining tannin. Leather, some meatiness, dark cherries, some blood orange/orange peel, spices, almost a nuttiness and really complex. Terrific balance, mouthfeel and reinforces my faith in this producer to deliver elegant, yet powerful wines from top sites.

Morey Saint Denis with James Handford MW (Handford Wines, London): WOTN. Dense and proper. Felt almost an outsider to the light Morey Saint Denis wines. Deep, rich, silky and very very good

Confrerie Burgundy Trip – Day 2 (Gevrey-Chambertin/Morey-Saint-Denis): Very aromatic nose of first flower, then roast and cherries. Elegant palate of cherries and blackcurrants with medium acidity and sandy tannins. Gentle finish with medium to long persistence.
