I see that Virgile will have a new label design for his 2007’s, but the ‘old label’ 2006 was great start to the week…
2006 Lignier-Michelot, Morey St.Denis 1er Aux Charmes
Wide with a forward black-cherry note, even a hint of Sage – slowly a beautiful clear note of fruit runs through the middle – very precocious, very impressive. Fine tannin with good acidity that forms the basis of a lovely mouth-watering finish – and there’s even a little reprise after a minute. Wide on the palate with fruit that’s almost as good as nose. A really super wine that had the density and presence to walk all over the ’95 Pomerol (Lagrange) that preceded it.
Rebuy – Yes
