The 2016 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Les Faconnières, which was blended with 70% whole-bunch fruit, has a rip-roaring bouquet with mineral-infused black fruit, crushed rose petals and hints of dried quince. I love the energy and generosity of this Morey-Saint-Denis. The palate is medium-bodied with fine but firm tannin, with blackberry and traces of tobacco. It exhibits firm grip in the mouth and delivers impressive weight and density on the finish. It will require three or four years to open up but it will be worth the wait.

Good dark red. Offers another dimension on the nose, with its aromas of dark cherry, raspberry and soil lifted by floral high tones. Harmonious acidity gives lovely juicy definition and lift to the wine's intense cherry and dark raspberry fruit. Quite refined for a wine from this cellar. Really perfumes the mouth and rises on the finish, which features firm but smooth tannins and lovely lift.
