Perrot-Minot – Morey Saint Denis 1er Cru Riotte

Its body, silky tannin, purity, intensity, precision and length are quite surprising here. A great wine!

Serving Suggestions:
Masculine in character, as one expects from the Côte de Nuits, full and powerful in the mouth, red Morey-Saint-Denis is most at home with meats of equally strong flavours. Its tannins are more likely to bring out the best from a game bird (such as a pheasant) than a piece of veal, for example. Feathered game, braised or roasted, will succumb smoothly to its meaty texture, and its sustained tannins will continue to make their presence felt until the last succulent, musky mouthful. The tannins, again, will bring out the full quality of a fine rib steak or a nice thick beef blade. Soft-centred cheeses will find in this wine a compatible partner.

Serving temperature: 14 to 16 °C.
