Charmes Chambertin, Domaine Claude Dugat 2016

Tasting Notes

**Note: from a .33 ha parcel of 40+ year old vines in Charmes proper**
Firm reduction dominates the underlying fruit today. Otherwise there is both excellent volume and punch to the moderately concentrated, focused and precise flavors that conclude in a borderline rustic, austere and slightly lean finish. This ultra-serious effort is an old school Charmes and a wine that is going to require extended keep as it's very, very tightly wound at present.
