The 2018 Pierre Amiot Morey Saint Denis Les Millandes 1er Cru is a Pinot Noir hailing from the esteemed Burgundy region of France, specifically from the Cote de Nuits sub-region, within the Morey St Denis appellation. This wine is crafted by Domaine Pierre Amiot, a producer known for its commitment to traditional winemaking methods, and it is presented with a cork closure.

This vintage presents the classic characteristics expected from a premier cru Pinot Noir from Burgundy. The wine's color is a vibrant red, signaling the rich and robust nature of the 2018 harvest. While specific reviews are not provided here, wines from this region and producer typically exhibit a complex bouquet with notes of red and dark berries, subtle earthiness, and a hint of spice. The Morey St Denis Les Millandes vineyard is known for producing wines with a balance of fruit intensity and refined tannins, likely reflected in this offering.

Domaine Pierre Amiot has a reputation for creating wines that age gracefully, and the 2018 vintage is expected to be no exception. This wine likely benefits from a few years of cellaring to allow its flavors to integrate fully and develop further complexity. The absence of specific alcohol content in the details suggests a focus on the wine’s flavor profile rather than potency.

While this bottle is noted as having a "bin soiled label," this cosmetic issue should not detract from the wine’s quality or taste. Collectors and enthusiasts familiar with Pierre Amiot's wines will appreciate this offering for its potential to deliver a taste of Burgundy's terroir with elegance and depth.

As reviews for this particular vintage and bottling are unavailable, potential buyers should consider past performances of Domaine Pierre Amiot’s wines and the general acclaim of the Morey St Denis Les Millandes 1er Cru in evaluating this wine.
