Here the expressive nose is notably more complex and just as elegant with its beautifully layered combination of red flowers, pomegranate, cherry and soft earth hints. Like the Chambolle, vibrant medium-bodied flavors possess an ultra-refined mouth feel that is sleek yet tautly muscular, all wrapped in a cool and lilting finale that delivers excellent persistence.
Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2014 tasting, Perrot-Minot's 2014 Morey Saint Denis 1er Cru les Riottes offers plenty of ripe strawberry and raspberry preserves aromas despite just a touch of reduction, although this ebbed away with a bit of swirling. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit, a fine line of acidity, gently grippy in the mouth with a rather aloof but attractive finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle and a decent decanting to get the most from this Morey-Saint-Denis because there is plenty of potential. Tasted September 2017. Drink Date 2020 - 2032
Mid crimson. Sweet, slightly boiled-raspberry hard-candy nose. Fresh and chiselled though not sumptuously weighty. Quite youthful.
