Hubert Lignier Morey St. Denis La Riotte 1er Cru 2014 novemberoprydning Tasted from an ex-château bottle

Tasted from an ex-château bottle at BI Wine & Spirits Calon-Segur dinner in London

som startede det hele hos Shafer og hører uden diskussion hjemme i den allerøverste top i Napa Valley

som går helt tilbage til 1880’erne og afgjort er et besøg værd

Gæringen sker traditionelt i åbne kar med lang maceration

Oprindeligt var slottet en del af en af de ældste ejendomme i Medoc

Hubert Lignier Morey St. Denis La Riotte 1er Cru 2014 novemberoprydning Tasted from an ex-château bottleNeal Martin The 2014 Morey St Denis 1er Cru la Riotte has a very expressive, mineral driven bouquet with just a dash of black pepper coming through with aeration. The palate is lively on the entry with grippy tannin, tightly wound red berry fruit with a structured, quite masculine, stony faced finish that should lighten up once in bottle. Even then, one can see how it gains vigor in the glass and attains wonderful focus. Hubert Lignier et
