Bruno Clavelier Vosne Romanee La Combe Brulee 2020 (750ML)

90-93 JM / 88-91 BH

88 year old vines in a cold site, with 50% whole bunch vinification. Similar deep purple. The nose has slightly darker fruit, with the whole bunch showing a touch more, and some black tea notes. Slightly more volume of fruit here with a savoury finish. Tasted: December 2021.-- Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

Note: a villages-level wine from 65+ year old vines Tasting note: An overtly floral nose combines notes of various dark berries with those of violet, plum and sandalwood. The intense and refined middle weight flavors exude evident salinity on the dusty, even chalky, and youthfully austere finish. This too will need a few years of patience in order to further flesh out.--Allen Meadows, Burghound
