Morey St. Denis 1er cru Clos de la Bussiere 2018 Georges Roumier

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (93)

The 2018 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Clos de la Bussière has turned out very well this year, revealing lovely aromas of cherries, raspberries, rose petals and cinnamon, competed by rich soil tones and subtle carnal nuances. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, powdery and succulent, with a deep, tight-knit core and impressive freshness for the vintage, concluding with a chalky finish.

Monopole of less than 2.59 ha (6.4 acres). Monopole since the 12th century. Opposite the entrance to Dujac. Bought in the 1950s by Christophe’s grandad. Not in good nick so he started to renew it in 1955 and last phase of renewal was 1994. South of Morey. Lots of clay. 25% new barrels, 45% whole bunch. Barrel sample.
Pure and slightly peppery dark fruit. So coaly on the palate, dark layers of sober fruit, utter beauty without any show. Perfect restraint. More compact than the Chambolle. So moreish and without flirtatiousness. Serious and seriously beautiful. Gorgeous. (JH)
