The estate’s 2009 Morey St. Denis is made from three parcels; Les Porroux, Clos Solon and Chenevery. It shows the broad shoulders of Morey in its dark fruit, spices, mint and white flowers. The firm tannins and depth of the fruit add to a sense of vibrancy. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024.
Hubert Lignier started harvesting on September 11. The fruit was 100% destemmed. Vinification started with a few days of cold maceration followed by fermentation, with one or two punchdowns a day. The village level wines saw 20-25% new oak (some of the barrels were slightly larger 350-liter casks), while the estate used approximately 33% and 50% new barrels for the 1er Crus and Grand Crus respectively.
