Pierre Morey Monthélie Rouge 2013

Earthy and somewhat austere, with dried cherry and forest floor notes threading through a medium frame. The tannins grip hard and feel unpolished, while tobacco and baking spice add complexity. Shows the rustic side of Monthélie without much elegance. The fruit seems past its prime already.
