Note di degustazione
The 2015 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Cuvée des Alouettes is deeper and more serious than the Cuvée des Grives, wafting from the glass with a lavish bouquet of ripe plum, cherry, cinnamon, licorice, rich soil and dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, sappy and powerful, with a deep core of sweet fruit that conceals an ample chassis of fine-grained, chalky tannin.

Healthy dark red. Deeper, more soil-inflected nose than the Cuvée des Grives, hinting at black raspberry and smoke. Dense, saline and deep if tighter in its grain than the Cuvée des Grives. This very rich, full, soil-driven wine finishes with substantial broad, dusty tannins and terrific slowly building length and lift. Very much like a smaller-scaled Clos de la Roche.
(from Monts Luisants; an alouette is a lark). A mild touch of reduction pushes the fruit to the background for the present. By contrast there is an excellent sense of verve to the muscular and mineral-driven flavors that possess fine delineation on the dusty, firm and balanced finale where the supporting tannins make it clear that this is very much built-to-age; that said this is not at all rustic or austere.
