A beautifully layered mix is composed by notes of both red and dark cherry, earth and more floral nuances. The sleek, succulent and bigger-bodied flavors exhibit focused power on the robust and borderline rustic finale that delivers very fine depth and persistence. This is very good and a classic Millandes.*Burghound Outstanding!*

The 2023 Morey-Saint-Denis Les Millandes 1er Cru offers a well-defined bouquet with touches of crushed stone infusing the red fruit, becoming more floral with aeration. The medium-bodied palate features plush tannins, good body and ample depth. There is a little sinew toward the close, perhaps at the expense of finesse, though it finishes long. Give this a couple of years in the bottle.(NM)
