Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, the 2013 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru La Riotte Vieilles Vignes has a powerful, peppermint-scented bouquet that seems to be dominated by the new oak at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannin, quite dense but missing nuance and complexity on the one-dimensional finish. Tasted September 2016.
