Burghound (91-93 points): There is a wonderfully seductive mouth feel to the rich, velvety and sappy medium weight plus flavors that brim with dry extract and minerality on the lingering finale where the firm tannic spine arrives in a rush... Less (-) Free US Shipping | ||

The wine is impressive in the 2017 vintage, with much density and intensity. Burghound found “notably ripe aromas of dark raspberry, cassis, and spiced plum.” This is a wine that will require a few years in the cellar to show its potential, even in this early-drinking vintage. But five, ten, or fifteen years down the road, it can be expected to integrate fully and express its fine pedigree.

He's brought a passion for organic viticulture and low-intervention winemaking. We’ve always loved the wines from the Amiot family, but we’re even more excited about where they’re going.
The Grand Cru Clos de la Roche 2022 is built for a very long life. It has dense, dark cherry fruit mixed with a solid dose of oak. There is plenty of power here, and the length is exceptional. But patience will be required to enjoy it near its peak; Burghound (91-94pts) says “this is definitely a wine to buy and cellar as it’s not likely to be especially approachable young,” finding “power and muscle” with an “impressively long, austere, built-to-age and quite serious finale.” Less (-) Free US Shipping | ||

You might imagine a hot dry year like 2022 would threaten to blur his crisp, focused style, but Morey has turned in a classic vintage, and each cuvée perfectly reflects its terroir.
An exquisite nose of yellow fruits, wild honey and melon combines with lemon peel and chalk in the mouth to create a symphony of striking notes. Morris found “peaches and honeysuckle,” and a “central core of white fruit,” awarding 92-96. As usual this wine should age for a decade with ease, but we think this year’s may be more accessible early should thirst or space constraints force your hand. Less (-) Free US Shipping |
