2022 Joseph Faiveley Chambolle Musigny Premier Cru La Combe D'orveau

This is a small appellation, where Grand Cru, Premier Cru and village wines come surprisingly close together. Our extremely small parcel of Combe d’Orveau, perched above the Petits Musigny Grand Cru, covers just 0.12 ha. Production is therefore extremely limited, ranging from 1 to 2 "pièces" only in the best years. While it is less fragrant than his neighbour Echezeaux, it is extremely concentrated and powerful. It differs from our Musigny in that its stony soils rest directly on the limestone-rich rock, imparting a more pronounced minerality. This makes it a ‘Petit Musigny’ in its own right.
