The Exemplar - Gracefulness to the Extreme:
2017 Jouan Morey St. Denis 1er Cru Clos Sorbé

Posted by Ian McFadden

In the past handful of years, we've become obsessed with Jouan.

For us, Clos Sorbé is the star.

Jouan's Clos Sorbé gets to the beating heart of the domaine like no other wine in the incredibly strong lineup does.

Jouan's wines are all about subtlety and a mysterious quiet depth. The Clos Sorbé captures this signature with heartbreaking beauty.

Clos Sorbé possesses a haunting mixture of perfume and delicacy. There's a velvety, nuanced complexity to the wine that makes it simply gorgeous.

You can expect the 2017 to have a radiant purity and clarity of expression. It possesses an extraordinary elegance and gracefulness. There's plenty of earthy minerality and spice inflected red fruits.

I'll wrap this up. We're not alone in our love for Clos Sorbé. Each time that we offer the wine, there's a very strong response. Please give us your ideal order and we'll try our best.
