2015 Domaine Perrot-Minot Chambolle-Musigny La Combe d'Orveau Cuvée Ultra Vieilles Vignes 1er Cru

Saturated deep red. Profound aromas and flavors of red fruits, crushed rock, red licorice and smoky minerality; a wonderfully complex, pure expression of soil. Like liquid silk in the mouth but also incredibly concentrated and alive, showing a restrained sweetness and savory saline minerality. Wonderfully sappy and energetic on the extremely long, echoing finish, where the wine's refined tannins are perfected buffered by its mid-palate extract. Despite this wine's underlying power and guts, it maintains an essentially pliant, even gentle character.
