Description
The 2022 Domaine Albert Morot Beaune 1er Cru Les Aigrots is a classic Pinot Noir offering bright red fruit (cherry, raspberry, strawberry), spicy notes (clove, ginger), earthy undertones (mushroom, soil), subtle violet, and firm, silky tannins with fresh acidity, showing complexity from 14-18 months in French oak for a balanced, terroir-driven, and age-worthy Burgundy, perfect with roasted meats or cheese.
Critics describe the Domaine Albert Morot Beaune 1er Cru Les Aigrots Red 2022 as a refined and powerful Burgundy that balances sweet, ripe fruit with a firm, age-worthy structure.
Decanter (Charles Curtis MW): 93 Points. Curtis notes the wine is initially "slow to open" but eventually reveals a generous bouquet of black cherry, lavender, earth, and spice. He highlights a "sweet character" on the palate that is immediately satisfying, backed by a "tannic grip and density" that suggests strong aging potential.
