Maison Joseph Drouhin
Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru - Clos Sorbe 2009
aoc

Cépage Pinot Noir
Sol clay and limestone
Elevage in barrels (20% in a new oak)

Description

Morey may be in the shadow of its illustrious neighbors Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny, but its Premier Cru Clos Sorbé is a little gem. The vineyard is on a gradual slope with a good east exposure.

Something unusual: the vines of Clos-Sorbé are located in the middle of the village.

Tasting

"A beautiful, bright cherry colour. The powerful nose displays aromas of red fruit and exotic wood. On the palate, the wine is deep and velvety, generous and elegant, with soft tannins. Long aftertaste reminiscent of cherries macerated in brandy. A wine to discover, deserving to be better known".

Tasting Note by Véronique Boss-Drouhin


Vintage

The wines are very generous with ample character. The tannic structure is quite strong but ripe. The acidity level is fairly low. To be drunk or to be kept, the choice will be difficult as they are already full of charm, but also well-balanced, which is a sign of a good ageing potential. 2009 is showing its breed and will rightfully take its place among those vintages ending in "9" in the last century, as well as 2005, 1978, 1961...
