Bruno Clavelier Chambolle Musigny la Combe d'Orveaux Vieilles Vignes 1er Cru (750ML)

From Chambolle-Musigny

Vintage:	2020
Description:	94-96 Jm / 92-94 Bh / 92-94 Wa. Mixed vine ages grown on white oolite with rocky Comblanchien outcrops. Fault lines throughout with crystalline calcite deposits which mean that his plough shines like a jewel at the end of the day's work in Combe d'Orveau! Rich deep and even purple. A complex and fascinating nose, as much mineral as fruit forward. Excellent backbone with a very long finish, a striking mix of red and little black fruits. One for the long term. Tasted: December 2021.--Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. Note: planted with vines of 20+ and 65+ years of age that sit directly above Musigny Tasting note: A beautiful nose combines plenty of floral and spice elements with notes of red cherry and jasmine tea. The gorgeously textured middle weight flavors exude a lovely salinity on the chalky, tension-filled and exceptionally long finish. La Combe d'Orveau usually requires extended aging but this version should be approachable relatively early. Sweet Spot. Outstanding. --Allen Meadows, Burghound. The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru La Combe d'Orveau mingles aromas of raspberries and plum with notions of orange rind and rose petals in an attractive bouquet. It's a medium to full-bodied, bright and lively wine of almost crystalline purity. Long and penetrating, it's my pick of the range.--William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
