2008 - Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes, Denis Bachelet

Tasting Notes

92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 11
Ruby-red. Deep aromas of black plum, licorice and flowers, with complicating hints of truffle and underbrush. Broad, silky and sweet, with impressive volume for the vintage. Bright acids frame but do not dominate the dark fruit, smoke and mineral flavors. Finishes long and suave, with fine-grained tannins. This will give early pleasure for a Charmes-Chambertin from Bachelet.
