2018 Pierre Amiot Morey St Denis 1er Cru 'Les Ruchots' MAGNUM

Just over one hectare of vines directly beneath Clos de Tart, vines are in excess of 55 years. Shares the same perfume and delicacy as the Charmes and Millandes but is more detailed and vibrant. The palate is also the most defined and balanced with a really lovely resolved tannin structure. Jono Hersey, FWC Tasting note: An attractively layered nose combines notes of spiced plum, dark cherry and discreet violet aromas that are trimmed in ample but not really annoying wood influence. The sleek, delicious and appealingly textured middle weight flavors also culminate in a firm, serious and grippy finish that doesn't seem to have its usual level of depth. 90 Points. Allen Meadows, Burghound.
