The 2013 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru comes from around 60-year-old vines located in Mazoyères just below those of Christophe Perrot-Minot. It has a gorgeous bouquet that is beautifully defined, pure as the driven snow, with candied dark cherry fruit and cassis interlaced with cold stony scents. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannins, a sorbet-like freshness and vitality. This feels so silky in the mouth and the finish is extraordinarily long. What an utterly beautiful wine in the making.
