Domaine Bruno Clavelier Vosne-Romanée La Combe Brûlée VV 2015

Bruno Clavelier maakt enkele van de allermooiste Bourgognes. Zijn wijnen zijn extreem rasvol en vol finesse en tonen op quasi onnavolgbare wijze de nuance verschillen tussen de diverse terroirs. De wijnen vereisen wel enkele jaren rijping, maar uw geduld wordt dan wel bijzonder beloond.

La Combe Brûlée is een hooggelegen, wat koeler perceel met 85 jarige stokken op een sterk kalkhoudende bodem, net boven premier cru “Les Brûlées”.
Vinous (Stephen Tanzer): “(25 hectoliters per hectare; this massale selection was harvested at the end, on September 12): Bright medium red, a bit less saturated than the Hauts de Beaux Monts. Very reduced aromas of strawberry and rose petal show a a freshness from this parcel’s cooler exposition and combe influence. In adistinctly juicy, penetrating style but still with the silkiness of the vintage. Strawberry and raspberry fruit flavors are extended by pungent mineral and floral elements on the classically dry finish. In a juicy, lighter style but with no shortage of density. “

Wine Advocate (Neal Martin): “The 2015 Vosne-Romanée La Combe Brûlées comes from limestone soils particularly rich with marine fossils. It was showing a touch more reduction compared to the Les Hauts de Beaumonts, though underneath lies plenty of red and more black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with
sappy red berry fruit, the 30% new oak neatly integrated and with a gentle grip towards the finish. There is good mass and body to this Vosne-Romanée and I appreciate the subtle salinity on the aftertaste.”
