The 2010 Morey St. Denis Le Chenevery is rich, sumptuous and beautifully balanced. All the elements are woven together gracefully in this deeply expressive wine. Underlying mineral notes provide considerable tension in support of the textured fruit. This is a terrific showing. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027.
Virgile Lignier began his harvest on September 24. Potential alcohols came in between 11.8 and 14%. The wines under 12.5% were lightly chaptalized by about a half degree. I tasted all of the 2010s from tank, where they were resting in anticipation of bottling, which was scheduled to start this January. Virgile Lignier told me he was quite surprised by the quality of the 2010s, especially the ripeness of the tannins.
