Tasting Notes
JancisRobinson.com 17/20
La Combe d’Orveau and the more northerly Les Plantes premier cru (planted 1967). Barrel sample. A slightly wild note like wild strawberries. A touch of smoky reduction? Peppery and tight on the palate and so juicy and fresh. Energy and purity. Very fine tannins. Still some CO2 after late malo. There’s depth without weight. (JH)
