2010 Domaine Albert Morot Beaune Toussaints

Slow-o in bottle for a few hours before dinner.  Shy nose at first, slowly opening up with subtle spice notes. 
Pleasing minerally red cherry with a sweetness to the tannins (compliments of the beautiful 2010 vintage), accompanied by a nice touch of sous bois.
Gaining in presence with dinner, with more tartness coming to fore. Paired nicely with Poulet Dijon, broccoli - pear salad, risotto, and artichoke salad. 
Not the last word in complexity at this stage, but definitely worth a try now. Domaine Albert Morot has always provided great value in 1er Cru Burgundy.
