Domaine Pierre Amiot et Fils
Morey St. Denis Pinot Noir
Morey St. Denis, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
Super high-toned, black cherry coulis; a very typical ‘17. Not so typical: stuffing, concentration and a bit of tannic kick, suggesting better things in 5-7 years. Every single 2017 outperforms at this domaine.

Brown and thin upon opening. After half hour in decanter, the color nose and particularly the taste came around. Earthy and smoky.

This one was tired and cloudy. Not a joy to drink but not bad for sipping while cooking...

Nov 1st, 2014Lingonberry, red currant, pomegranate...bitter finish, but such vivacity and breadth to the fruit. Air helped.

Amiot burgundies are elegant and this one fits the bill. Drink cool. Cherry notes - bitter in a good way tannic, earl grey tea, chalky? Great stance oak well managed drinks like a premier cru. Much better then the 2011 I just checked my notes. If you have this one in your cellar consider yourself lucky but drink it now it is delicious. 🍷.

Sep 29th, 2016Cherry Nose. Light color. The Amiot wines in Jason's portfolio tend to be more elegant. I am assuming no or little stems in this one. Very slight green undertone upon opening. Seems closed to me. Burgundy in its mid life crisis? MUST be decanted for at least 30 min. A tinge of port. Dark forest floor berries - Graphite. Tart this needs at least 3 more years!
