Domaine Albert Morot
Domaine Albert Morot produces 10 appellations farmed organically on 8 hectares (20 acres) which presents Beaune and its terroirs through a common denominator: Full-bodied wines with agreeably fruity aromas; pure racy wines that express each terroir‘s distinctive qualities. The domaine also boasts one of the best plots in Savigny-lès-Beaune and a small Pommard production.
Description
“Bright, dark red. Medicinal black cherry, spices, licorice and a whiff of game on the nose. The richest, sweetest and most pliant of these 2016s, showing the best palate presence and volume of the range but still youthfully backward. Finishes with dark fruit and licorice notes, substantial dusty tannins and saliva-inducing salinity. This wine will need aging but even today it's neither dry nor hard on the back end.” Stephen Tanzer
