2021 Domaine Hubert Lignier La Riotte, Morey St Denis Premier Cru, France
$225.00
Situated at the foot of grand cru Clos-Saint-Denis, La Riotte is a cru full of small stones, and it possesses a distinctively vivid, tight-grained minerality from which all other elements of the wine seem to flow. Beneath the dominating calcareous elements are gorgeous red fruits, wispy spices, and a notable floral character. Aged in one-quarter new wood for 18 months, “La Riotte” is a formidable wine that nonetheless refrains from drawing undue attention to its power.
