2022 Domaine des Lambrays Morey St. Denis 1er Cru 'Clos Baulet'

94 POINTS: The Clos Baulet stayed with the Cossons when they sold the Domaine des Lambrays; their owned one-third of the total surface of 0.9 hectares. The wine is very distinct from the 'Les Loups' bottling. It has a ripe red currant fruit aroma strongly coloured by hints of black tea, menthol, and peony that Jacques Devauges calls 'végétal noble'. The tannins are less grippy, and the texture is enlivened by a bit more fresh acidity. This wine will not be approachable as early as Les Loups, but it should show great complexity in five to seven years.
