Note di degustazione
(the same blend of elements as the 2015 version): Bright, dark red. Cool scents of dark cherry, licorice and stone. Silky and nicely concentrated but showing little easy sweetness to its youthfully medicinal flavors of cherry and menthol. As there's less mid-palate flesh here than in the '15 version, the tannins come across as a bit tight today but the classically dry finish is tactile and persistent. Christophe Perrot-Minot says this wine is closed in the early going owing to its sizable Combe d'Orveau component.

(this wine is 60% Chambolle-Musigny old vines and 40% Combe d'Orveaux Vieilles Vignes; Perrot-Minot decided to discontinue the Combe d'Orveaux bottling in order to avoid confusion in the market place with his special Chambolle-Musigny La Combe D'Orveau Cuvée Ultra Vieilles Vignes; he has also stopped making a "regular" Nuits-Saint-Georges La Richemone Vieilles Vignes): Bright red. Pungent aromas of raspberry and crushed stone. Bracing and vibrant in the mouth, with red berry, spice and mineral flavors framed by edgy acidity. Very fresh on the finish. An excellent village wine in the making but this will need time.
The 2014 Chambolle Musigny Vieilles Vignes contains 30% of Combes d'Orveaux that Christophe used to bottle separately. It has a nose that blossoms with red cherries and blueberry fruit; it is airy in style and quite expressive at this early stage. The palate is smooth and harmonious with well judged acidity, commendable weight in the mouth, but perhaps just needing a little more substance and complexity to come through on the finish. Perhaps afford this a couple of years in bottle? You feel like gee-ing it along.
