Note di degustazione
Healthy dark red. Piquant high-pitched scents of raspberry, bitter cherry and crushed rock. Wonderfully dense, bright and light on its feet, offering terrific rose petal lift to its pungent red berry and saline mineral flavors. A pure expression of crushed-stone terroir , and yet there's also a silkiness here that suggests a gentle extraction. The tannins are very suave but the wine shows signs of closing down in the bottle and will need patience. I'm not sure if I'd pick this brisk, sharply delineated beauty as a 2015.

(from the same original plot of 70-year-old vines as Perrot-Minot's Combe d'Orveau; Taupenot's and Perrot's mothers are sisters): Healthy dark red. Pungent red berries and crushed stone on the nose. Tightly wound and sharply delineated, offering superb floral lift to the tart cranberry, pomegranate and spice flavors. Finishes firm and long, with an exhilarating balance of sweetness and acidity.
The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru La Combe d'Orveau has raspberry coulis, bilberry, sous-bois and cedar aromas that gently unfold in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a gentle grip on the entry, a keen thread of acidity, a little saline with a conservative, quite structured finish that just needs a little more persistence on the aftertaste. This may develop after racking, so I look forward to tasting this after bottling.
Recently blended and racked prior to tasting. Very rich and ripe and heady. I think lots of people would love this. Very sweet and flattering. Will it have enough acidity for the long term? Just a bit drying on the end. (JR)
