2021 Domaine Odoul-Coquard Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru "Les Millandes", Burgundy, France

ABOUT THIS WINE

Sourced from the “Les Millandes” Premier Cru vineyard, located just 100 meters from “Clos de la Riotte,” this wine benefits from richer and heavier soils that impart a more powerful character. The vineyard sits at elevations between 220 and 270 meters with east-facing exposures, and the vines were planted in the 1990s. The 2021 vintage underwent 15 months of maturation in French oak barrels, 50% of which were new, enhancing its complexity without overshadowing the fruit. On the nose, it presents aromas of wild raspberries, red currants, and floral notes, complemented by hints of nutmeg and cinnamon. The palate is medium-bodied, featuring soft and spicy tannins, balanced acidity, and a long, refined finish. This wine pairs beautifully with dishes such as roast duck, veal, or mushroom-based cuisine.
