Domaine Arlaud Aux Combottes, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, France 2021 Morey-Saint-Denis Clos Baulet passionfruit and pineappleThe 2021 Gevrey Chambertin Aux Combottes 1er Cru is very convincing on the nose, a mixture of red and black fruit, forest floor, hints of crushed limestone and orange zest. So much vigour. The palate is medium bodied with beautifully integrated oak, fine grain tannins, taut and linear with a sublime, quite persistent finish that you just want to keep drinking again and again. Outstanding.
