A top note of herbal tea is present on the cooler and airier if not necessarily spicier or more elegant aromas of essence of wild red berries. The mouthfeel of the almost painfully intense medium weight plus flavors is also quite sleek thanks to the dense but fine-grained tannins that flash even more minerality on the more austere finale that displays excellent depth and persistence. As befits a classic Chambertin, this is a wine to buy and forget you own it for at least a decade.
