2015 Chambolle-Musigny 1. Cru Les Combottes Domaine Henri Felettig

Hints of green tea and rose petal are present on the very fresh red pinot fruit and spiced-scented nose. I very much like the seductive texture of the generously proportioned medium weight flavors that exhibit a subtle minerality on the moderately firm and vibrant finish. This should drink well after only a few years of bottle age if desired.

The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Combottes, which is matured in 60% new oak, has a sensual, quite opulent bouquet with red cherries, hoisin and hints of soy developing in the glass. There is almost something Oriental here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine definition, quite dense in the mouth with quite a grippy, structured finish that feels linear and correct. It will deserve another 4-5 years in bottle but it has the substance to deliver the goods.
