2019 Camus-Bruchon Pommard Clos des Arvelets 1er Cru

From a single 0.20ha parcel of Camus-Bruchon’s famed Clos des Arvelets planted in the 1960s, this is a bottling rarely seen in the United States. Just two barrels were produced.
Burghound Outstanding ♥ – “As is typically the case with this wine, it is much cooler and more aromatically restrained than many of the prior wines with its mix of earthy plum and floral scents, all of which is trimmed in just enough wood to mention. There is evident minerality suffusing the vibrant, firm and serious flavors that terminate in an overtly austere but lengthy finish. While this could be approached after 5 to 7 years of cellaring, 10 to 12 is more likely to see it at its apogee. This too is one to consider, provided that you have the necessary patience to wait for it to further develop.”
