Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Chambolle-Musigny Les Clos de l'orme 2019 AOC 0.75l

Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Chambolle-Musigny Les Clos de l'Orme 2019 AOC 0.75l is a red wine that embodies the understated elegance of the Côte d'Or, offering a Burgundian interpretation of the Chambolle-Musigny terroir and the finesse that distinguishes the most long-lived crus. Made from a Les Clos de l'Orme vineyard, it is an exemplary interpretation of a terroir where the soil, exposure, and vineyard care interact with the ripening of the grapes to deliver a complex, unpretentious aromatic presence, designed for those seeking depth without showiness. The producer's history is intertwined with a long-term vision that considers respect for the place as a cornerstone of quality. The house operates as a family project, cultivating its own vineyards and transforming the blend of tradition and precision into wines capable of breathing life into the past, conveying to the nose and palate the memory of a land and climate that change from year to year. The production philosophy is based on attentive yet discreet vineyard work, selective manual harvesting, ageing that prioritizes texture over immediate roundness, and a cellar focused on preserving the purity of the fruit: natural yeasts and meticulous barrel management are favored, with minimal intervention during the design and bottling phases, to allow the wine to evolve without losing its mineral and earthy signature. Among its distinguishing features is Les Clos de l'Orme's ability to combine the silky nuance typical of Chambolle-Musigny with a structure that can withstand even the pressures of prolonged maturation, offering a depth that manifests in layers of red fruit, violet blossom, subtle spicy notes, and a hint of graphite. The balance, acidity, and light yet present tannins ensure this wine can accompany dishes of great character without losing its structure. Within the producer's portfolio, this 2019 occupies a prominent place as a window onto Les Clos de l'Orme and its ability to translate site-specificity into flavorful coherence, offering the possibility of controlled aging and enjoyment at different stages of maturity. For those seeking an authentic interpretation of the Chambolle-Musigny terroir, this wine presents itself as a thoughtful choice, capable of developing over time without sacrificing a harmonious presentation; it is a wine that reflects the discipline and patience that STELT values, offering an experience that speaks of elegance, depth, and continuity between vineyard and cellar.
