Resurrected by life-long Burgundy lover Mark O’Connell in 2011 and our dear friend Pierre Meurgey, Domaine Clos de la Chapelle is headquartered at the Chateau de Bligny, owned by Pierre and no less than Dominique Lafon. The talent behind the new Domaine is considerable. We were so impressed by the wines after tasting the 2022s and were surprised to hear that they had little presence in the UK, so it is a real pleasure to offer these wines. "Sweet red cherry pastille nose, cinnamon stick and star anise, cocoa, spiced plums and raspberry jam tarts, decidedly showy. More tension and focus on the attack, but still very succulent and juicy red and blue berry fruit mid-palate, with salted liquorice tannins and bright acids driving to the pleasingly crisp, tamarind-inflected finish."
