Winery - Morey-Blanc
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Deliciously fresh, this is almost delicate, certainly elegant. There is great balance here, the wood just lightly toasty over the smooth, creamy white fruit flavors. For a wine from a lesser Burgundy appellation, this is impressive.

Relatively closed up at this stage, not giving much, this wine is all about freshness, poised but rich fruit and a structure that suggests long-term development. The wood is quite prominent, overshadowing what will be delicious yellow-fruit flavors. Come back to this wine in five years—it will be magnificent.

This comes from the negociant side of Pierre Morey’s business. It is full, rich, fat, open and quite opulent. Yes, the acidity and the freshness of the fruit are there, but this is a generous wine that will develop relatively quickly over 2 to 3 years.

This fresh wine offers a nice balance of tannins and lively acidity. It is ripe and sweet with a dry finish.

A velvet-smooth wine, deliciously ripe, with sweetness. Great red berry fruits, a touch of new wood and polished tannins create a properly Pinot Noir seduction.

This is an enjoyable wine, open and soft, with crisp white and yellow fruits, a touch of citrus and a touch of wood to give it all shape. Drink now.

Soft and gentle, this wine has fresh red berry fruits along with its tannins. It opens in the mouth to give a ripeness and roundness with those red fruits, and acidity is pronounced on the finish.

It’s not a bad name for this vineyard—Charmes. This wine, which expresses the nature of the vineyard, is certainly approachable, friendly almost. But there’s also a steel fist there that demands time. And if you can’t wait, it’s a great wine to drink now.

With wood and white stone fruit in fine balance, this is a ripe, full wine, the acidity lighting up the ripe flavor. The wine has a broad character, ready for drinking in a year.

A firm, tight wine, still young, still not showing all the roundness and weight that is potentially there. This is a wine that needs decanting, offering some good aging potential.
