2018 Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Chambolle-Musigny Les Clos de l'Orme

Other Reviews....
Moderately firm reduction presently blocks an evaluation of the nose. Otherwise there is good intensity and salinity to the sleekly textured and beautifully well-detailed flavors that display excellent length on the firm, focused and youthfully austere finish. Patience strongly suggested.

Aromas of ripe cherries and blackberries, complemented by notions of rose petals, violets and musky spices preface the 2018 Chambolle Musigny Clos de l'Orme, a medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered wine that's multidimensional, concentration and gourmand while remaining lively and beautifully defined. This is an exquisite Chambolle.

The 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Les Clos de l'Orme has a very intense nose compared to Cathiard’s other village cuvées, featuring black cherries, cassis and light blueberry aromas that are supremely well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and wonderful bead of acidity. It tightens up toward the finish, indicative of a wine that is determined to give two decades of pleasure. Just a wonderful Chambolle-Musigny.
