Clos de Tart / La Forge de Tart Morey Saint-Denis Premier Cru 2017
It has a full-bodied and lively taste, with rich, sensual tannins and a smooth, firm structure. Its soft structure makes it a style that can be enjoyed young.
Region: Burgundy
Origin: Morey Saint-Denis
Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Winemaking: Harvested and sorted by microclimate, then brewed separately. After alcoholic fermentation, transferred to new barrels for 10 months, then further barrel aging in underground cellars, then bottled and stored in the deepest cellars, where the temperature is kept at 13°C and humidity at 75%. Clos de Tart's second wine made from grapes aged 25 years or less.
Intense, limpid, jet-shot ruby, this is beautifully fragrant from the outset, violets, red fruit, and sherbet, spiced with pink pepper. The feminine guile on the nose gives way to a more structured palate than the aromatics suggest.
Varietal: 100% Pinot Noir
