Tasting Notes and Scores
There are just two barrels of the 2020 Chambolle-Musigny Aux Combottes 1er Cru this year. Pretty blackcurrant and redcurrant fruit laced with sous-bois unfurl on the nose, though it is not intense. The mineral component becomes more accentuated with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red fruit on the entry. There is just a touch of greenness here, just around the edges, a hint of bell pepper towards the finish. This is one that I would drink earlier than others as it just needs more substance on the finish. Maybe that will develop during the remainder of its barrel maturation? We will see. If so, I will dutifully raise my prudent score.
