The 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis en la Rue de Vergy, matured with 70% whole bunches, has a classy, well-defined blackberry and raspberry nose that reveals traces of tobacco and tar. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit and hints of orange essence and apricot. The fleshy, nubile finish suggests this will be perfect for early drinking.
