A full purple colour, with a nose that is unusually reticent for Charmes-Chambertin. There is generous fruit on the palate, but this is softer than most, a little bit toasty behind, perhaps from the 50% new wood utilised for the grand cru wines. There is a long finish but the wine is currently perplexing. It measures the highest degree in the cellar (15%) but with a low pH. I am taking a cautious line. Tasted: November 2020
