Tasting notes
Our Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 2013 has a pretty ruby color. The wine reveals a nose with blackcurrant, chocolate and undergrowth aromas. There are also toasted bread and smoky notes. The palate is ample and fresh with flavours of blackcurrant and dark chocolate. Nice persistence.
Description
Situated at the heart of the great wines of the Côte de Nuits, the Charmes-Chambertin is one of the most famous Grands Crus. Its terroir is highly complex which creates a wine that is supple and smooth with a wonderful rich structure. This wine should be kept for several years to allow it to demonstrate its potential and refinement.
