Maison Ilan, Morey Saint Denis Monts Luisants 1er Cru, 2010
Maison Ilan was a micro-négociant based in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Burgundy, founded by Ray Walker. The project gained a cult following for its focus on premier and grand cru vineyards and traditional, minimal-intervention winemaking. The Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Monts Luisants showcases the elegance and earthy complexity typical of the appellation, with fine tannins and vibrant red fruit character.
