Domaine Collotte Chambolle-Musigny Cuvee Vieilles Vignes 2020

Substantially from 40-50+-year-old vines planted just beneath 1er cru vineyards in the lieu dits of Les Échanges and Les Athets, with a small proportion from the adjoining Les Chardannes and Les Herbues. Deep rich and intense a remarkably generous village wine that punches well above its weight for both character and intensity.
”80% aux Echanges plus Athets and les Chardannes. Ooh, that's nice! A perfumed and darker fruit – nicely defined and accented with cooking herbs. Great, structural, fresh shape in the mouth – the acidity is forward, not painful but given the shape, I’d be tempted to drink this on the younger side, like the Boivin – and for the same reason. Excellent wine with a reprise of fine flavour in the finish. Lovely!” Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report, November 2021.
