Description

2018 Vosne-Romanée, Les Hautes Maizières, Vieilles Vignes, Domaine Bruno ClavelierThis old vines cuve comes from a tiny parcel of vines nearly 79 years in age that were planted by Massale Selection. The sub soil here is chalk but there's limestone and clay up above. This is a structured red Burgundy that's powerful and will benefit from age. The majority of the domaine's vines are old vines (Massale) planted in the 1930s and 40s. Naturally the yields are miniscule for this reason making this wine all the more rare. {***}

It is a medium to full bodied sake with intense and complex favours of rice and fruit and balanced with rich umami

They began on 7th September

The tannins are present in volumes

peated dram -with expressive bursts of soot and smoke complemented by the spirit’s fruitiness

but is beautifully defined with touches of kiwi fruit

camomile and much more

Sometimes I think we open these wines too soon after release

The world has moved away form the saucer-shaped glass to the flute
