The medium-bodied 2002 Morey-St.-Denis Les Loups (of which 35-40% is declassified fruit from the Clos des Lambrays) exhibits a nose of toasted oak and blackberries. Loads of black fruits interspersed with mocha envelop this medium-bodied wine’s ripe tannin. It is concentrated, well-fashioned, balance, and seamless. Anticipated maturity: now-2011. 
Producer
Domaine des Lambrays
Representing the nobility of Burgundy wines, Domaine des Lambrays was originally founded in 14th century, although it wasn’t until 1981, that the property was promoted to a Grand Cru status. As one of the oldest Grand Cru vineyards in the regions, Clos des Lambrays, has passed through the hands of many vinous players over the years. Since 2014 however, the estate has been under the ownership of the Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton group. Planted to 100% Pinot Noir vines, the walled-off vineyard totals around 9 hectares. Stretching over the steepest slopes of Morey Grand Crus, the Clos des Lambrays is made up of three main vineyards which reveal their own distinct terroirs. In the end, the wines flawlessly portray the delicate character and sophisticated taste of their holdings within the Morey-Saint-Denis area of Burgundy’s Côtes de Nuits.
