Tasting notes
The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny La Combe d’Orveau 1er Cru comes from a parcel of 72-year-old vines. It has a precise, pure bouquet of raspberry preserve, wild strawberry and rose petal aromas, the oak nicely integrated. The precise, detailed palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, a crisp line of acidity and good tension and mineralité toward the finish. This is a classy, cerebral wine.

In tank and will be bottled in February. Vines 70 years old, in the extension of Musigny. Mid crimson. So pretty on the nose, floral, fine red fruits. Delicate and refined. Super-pretty but with a depth of smooth, generous fruit. Already so silky but there’s breadth of fruit too, giving a roundness on the palate. Long and delicate. (JH)
