2023 Lignier-Michelot Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Faconnieres 1.5L Magnum

92-94 Mid crimson-ruby. The whole bunches (80%) make their presence felt on the nose, along with a more robust fruit than the graceful Charmes. More intensity of the red and black berries as well on the palate. As always, Faconnières offers a Morey of substance and class, with a particularly long finish. Drink from 2032-2038. Tasted Nov 2024. -Jasper Morris
