Tasting notes
The 2021 Morey-Saint-Denis Cuvée des Grives comes from shallow soils, the vines here are 16 years old. This possesses much more complexity and terroir expression on the nose than the Gevrey, sous-bois and truffle permeate the red fruit, with good vigour. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fresh and smooth with lightly spiced dark cherry and orange zest notes on the finish. Lovely.

The 2021 Morey-Saint-Denis Cuvée des Grives exhibits aromas of plums and red berries mingled with peonies and spices. Medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, it's a step up in depth and persistence compared with the domaine's Gevrey.
