The 2010 Morey St. Denis En La Rue de Vergy is an attractive, delicate wine graced with expressive dark red fruit. Firm yet well-integrated tannins give the wine its sense of energy and focus, especially on the finish. This is very Morey in demeanor. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025. This is a fabulous set of wines from Bruno Clair and his long-time oenologist Philippe Brun. The harvest started on September 25. Yields were 22-30 hectoliters per hectare, which is to say a good 10% less than 2003, a torrid vintage marked by tiny yields. Clair describes the fruit as healthy, with no botrytis and soft tannins from the late harvest. The 2010s were 100% destemmed. New oak ranged from 25% for the villages to 50% for the Grand Crus, except for the Marsannays, which saw very little new oak.
