Domaine Arlaud, Morey St Denis 1er Cru Les Millandes 2019

"There is very good freshness to the bigger, richer and more powerful medium weight flavors that possess very good mid-palate density, indeed this is almost opulent, yet the natural muscle of a fine Millandes is on display, particularly on the compact, serious and youthfully austere finale." - Allen Meadows

"The 2019 Morey-Saint-Denis Les Millandes 1er Cru came across very backward on the nose, gradually opening with black fruit and black olive/briny aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe black cherry and blueberry fruit, sweet and sorbet-fresh with a high-toned, yet focused finish that lingers long in the mouth. Very promising but it will require 3-4 years in bottle." - Neal Martin
