Magnien, Stéphane Morey-St-Denis 1er Cru "Aux Petites Noix"

Vintage: 2022
Description: From two premier crus, Les Gruenchers and Clos Baulet, mid slope in Morey Saint-Denis, giving a slightly fuller wine than Faconnieres. As with all of Stephane's parcels, there is a high percentage of old vines of "pinot tordu." The wine is more structured due to the deeper clay soils and gets less pigeage. The 2022 seemed less aromatic than the Faconnières with very deep ripe red and black fruits, showing more weight and a bit more fruit-forward, with herbal and mineral flavors and terrific length. This will need time in the cellar but is an excellent example of the more heavily fruited 2022s, and it should be a superb mature wine.
