The 2015 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru "Les Loups" is a blend of several parcels aged in one-third new oak, and has quite a forward, clove-tinged, detailed bouquet with ample red berry fruit. It is a nose that seems determined to please. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, crisp acidity, a hint of brown spice sprinkled liberally over the fleshy but persistent finish. Probably ready to go after a year in bottle, this is a very satisfying premier cru Morey-Saint-Denis.
