The old vines here were planted in the same year as the oldest vines in the Morey AC bottling- 1936. The 2012 version is going to be a legendary effort for this wine, as it offers up a deep, pure and utterly superb nose of black cherries, plums, cocoa, gamebirds, dark soil tones, woodsmoke, mustard seed and a deft framing of new wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and rock solid at the core, with ripe, utterly suave tannins, great focus and grip, tangy acids and stunning length on the perfectly balanced and very soil-driven finish. Great juice!
