Media Reviews

Allen Meadows

This is aromatically similar but with even more floral character that is also reflected by the intense, punchy and tautly muscular medium-bodied flavors that possess both better density as well as more structure on the youthfully austere finale. This is going to require at least 5 years of cellaring to become more civilized and is built to reward a decade or more. 89-92 points

William Kelley

Aromas of plums, cherries, raw cocoa, espresso roast and grilled meats introduce the 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru, a medium-bodied wine with tangy acids and a succulent core of fruit that largely conceals its fine structuring tannins. 90-92 points

Jasper Morris

A blend of Ruchots with Millandes, Charrières and a tiny bit of Sorbes. Pretty pink purple. Ravishing floral fresh redcurrant nose. Very sweet succulent fruit on the front of the palate, pure and fine, medium plus intensity, entirely red fruit, ripe cherries, good length. 93 points

Neal Martin

The 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru comes from four separate vineyards: Ruchots, Les Millandes, Les Sorbets and Charrières (I can confirm that Alex Seysses can remember them all, so do ask him!) It has an attractive bouquet of blackberry and wild hedgerow, a distinct marine influence emerging with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit, a touch of cola and moderate depth, but maybe just lacking the complexity of the 2015 or 2016 toward the finish. Drink over the next 10 years. 90-92 points
