Tasting Notes

90-92
Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Jan 14
Round, textured and polished to the core, the 2012 Charmes-Chambertin is quite attractive today. The flavors posses good mid-palate pliancy and depth, all in the medium-bodied style that marks the vintage here. Sweet red cherries, mint and licorice add complexity on the finish.
