Domaine Arlaud Morey-St-Denis 2004

After dinner we proceeded to a wine bar close by in Jiyugaoka. the bar Master suggested first off we try this burgundy, which opened to quite a tight but opening bouquet of berries and bramble, forest floor, mushroom and spice. On the palate it was tight initially, but did open slowly to show some lovely fruit-tannin interaction, and had a lovely mineral streak. Finished tight, smooth and dry. Not a bad start.
50+4+13+17+7 = 91/100
