MOREY SAINT DENIS Vieilles Vignes Domaine Lignier-Michelot 2021
The 2021 Morey-Saint-Denis Vieilles Vignes just misses a little vibrancy and presence on the nose, lighter and perhaps more transparent than the Rue de Vergy. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and a mixture of red and black fruit. It's smooth and harmonious, the 80% whole bunches neatly integrated… It is just missing a bit of verve and amplitude.
POMMARD 1er Cru Rugiens Domaine de Courcel 2016
(from a 1.07 ha parcel in Rugiens-Hauts). This is aromatically quite similar to the Fremiers and also flashes a background note of oak influence. The dense, powerful and super-rich mineral-driven big-bodied flavors possess first-rate levels of dry extract while delivering fine length on the mocha-inflected, bitter cherry pit and noticeably warm finish. This is certainly impressive in its fashion but it’s somewhat particular in the context of the vintage.
