This is the original Morey villages bottling from the domaine, which hails primarily from a very old parcel of vines planted in 1936 in the lieu à dit of Bas Chenevery (the top section of this vineyard is premier cru) which lies right below Les Millandes, with a small parcel of vines in neighboring Clos Solon also added to the blend. The 2012 version is absolutely classic, offering up a pure and stunning young nose of black cherries, plums, cocoa, a superb soil signature, woodsmoke and a touch of new oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, very pure and magically sappy at the core, with great fidelity to its underlying soil, suave tannins, lovely acidity and superb energy and grip on the very long and classy finish. It really is amazing that we are still tasting the village wines here- given the consistent quality and complexity of these last few wines! (Drink between 2020-2040)
