NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Lignier-Michelot Morey-Saint-Denis Premier Cru 'Aux Chezeaux' is a remarkable wine that showcases the elegance and complexity of the Morey-Saint-Denis appellation.With its Premier Cru status, this wine offers a heightened level of quality and refinement.
On the nose, expect a bouquet of red fruits, such as ripe cherries and raspberries, intertwined with delicate floral notes of violets. There is also a subtle hint of earthiness, reminiscent of damp forest floor, adding depth and complexity to the aromatic profile.
The palate is equally impressive, with a medium to full body and a silky texture that coats the mouth. The flavors mirror the aromas, with vibrant red fruit flavors taking center stage. The wine displays excellent balance, with well-integrated tannins and a refreshing acidity that provides structure and length to the finish.
This Premier Cru from Lignier-Michelot is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has the potential for further aging. Pair it with roasted duck breast or grilled lamb chops for a truly memorable dining experience.
