92/100 Parker
When to drink this wine : 2022 - 2040
Tasted by William Kelley: ‘The 2015 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Cuvée des Alouettes is deeper and more serious than the Cuvée des Grives. It opens with a sumptuous bouquet of ripe plum, cherry, cinnamon, liquorice, rich earth and dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, sappy and powerful, with a deep core of sweet fruit that hides a full frame of fine, chalky tannins.’
Tasting and pairing: faithful to its "Côte de Nuits" origin, i.e. masculine, powerful and full in the mouth, the red Morey-Saint-Denis is mainly satisfied with meats of character. Its tannins will enhance a wild bird better than a young calf. Hairy game, when braised or roasted, will be caressed by its fleshy texture and its sustained tannins will resist until the complete extraction of the juices from these musky meats. These same tannins will give all its relief to a beautiful entrecote or a thick rib of beef. Washed rind cheeses will also find a partner of character that can be used again and again.
Serving temperature: 13 to 15 °C.
Keeping time: 2021 - 2035
