Domaine Michel Magnien Morey Saint Denis 2016

The wines of Morey-Saint-Denis are often said to combine the structure of Gevrey Chambertin with the perfume of Chambolle-Musigny. This Morey-Saint-Denis shows freshred berries on the nose with notes of violets, spice, and earth. Old vines and heavier soils give this wine weight and richness on the palate.

Red Burgundy might be the world’s most flexible food wine. The wine’s high acidity, medium body, medium alcohol, and low tannins make it very food-friendly. Red Burgundy, with its earthy and sometimes gamey character, is a classic partner to roasted game birds, grilled duck breast, and dishes that feature mushrooms, black truffles, or are rich in umami.
