"La Combe d'Orveau" is one of the hidden gems in Chambolle-Musigny that is often overlooked because people misunderstand that it is a village but this terroir is actually split into two major parcels - one which is located at the lower slope and is classified as 1er Cru and Grand Cru; while the other on the west side is classified as "village". The plot which borders “Les Petits Musigny" (Musigny Grand Cru) has a lot of potential to reach Grand Cru status; and interestingly, some plots in La Combe d’Orveau had been promoted from 1er Cru to Grand Cru “Le Musigny” twice - once in in 1929 and another time in 1989. Due to the proximity to Le Musigny, there are plenty of stunning wines from La Combe d'Orveau which possess similar characteristics to that of their neighbour Le Musigny but are more approachable in price so it is a great starting point to explore the terroir of Musigny.

Note: this limited two barrel cuvée is crafted from 70+ year old vines that abut the Musigny climat which is also called La Combe d'Orveau and is a monopole of Domaine Jacques Prieur; it is not produced every vintage as it is only made from shot berries, known as millerandage.

Tasting note: Red berry liqueur-like aromas are liberally laced with a variety of spice and floral nuances. The impressively concentrated and opulent full-bodied flavors possess exceptionally good richness and volume while exhibiting beautiful depth on the beautifully lingering finish. I very much like the interplay of fruit, acidity and structure here and this is a wine that should be approachable young but age well too.

Subject to final confirmation. Special discount valid until 23rd April 2023 (Sunday). Immediately available.

Delivery is free-of-charge for single purchase above HK$3,000 or 6 bottles (or accumulated amount at time of delivery); otherwise, a standard delivery fee of HK$100 applies.
