Domaine Rémi Jeanniard Les Blanchards – Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru – White – 2024:

 

Discovering “Les Blanchards” – A Premier Cru Masterpiece

The Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru “Les Blanchards” from Domaine Rémi Jeanniard stands as a testament to the nobility of Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits. Crafted from 100% Pinot Noir grown in the distinguished ‘Les Blanchards’ Premier Cru climat, this wine offers a sophisticated bridge between the robustness of Gevrey-Chambertin and the refined charm of Chambolle-Musigny. It’s an essential addition to any discerning cellar.

Sommelier’s Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Rich ruby-red, with a clarity that speaks of quality and careful vinification.
• Aromas: A complex array of dark berries (blackcurrant, wild raspberry) and red cherry, beautifully layered with classic Pinot spice, a hint of liquorice, and a pronounced minerality that reflects the limestone-rich soil.
• Flavour Profile: Full-bodied yet impeccably balanced. The palate is defined by silky tannins and a refreshing acidity, leading to a persistent and elegant finish. This wine is built for the long haul, promising greater complexity with cellar age.

Food Pairing & Service

A wine of this calibre demands suitable pairings. Decant if serving young, and present at a cellar temperature of 16-18°C. It is the perfect accompaniment to classic British game and slow-cooked beef dishes.
