Morey St Denis La Riotte Perrot Minot 2016

Under the direction of Christophe Perrot-Minot, this is one of the most exciting domaines in Burgundy and his exceptional portfolio of wines spans some of the finest vineyards of the Côte de Nuits. American wine critic Allen Meadows describes the 2016 vintage as follows, "A pretty, cool and airy nose is comprised by aromas of maraschino cherry laced with both earth and a plethora of floral elements. The sleek, intense and wonderfully mineral-driven middle weight flavours possess an almost pungent salinity on the bitter cherry-inflected finish that flashes superb length. Like the Gevrey villages, if this can develop more depth with time in bottle this could be a knock-out."
