Chambolle Musigny Les Charmes, Domaine Hudelot-Noellat 2015

**Note: from 30+ year old vines**
This too is attractively fresh, bright and airy with its pretty nose that combines notes of lavender, violet, red cherry and subtle spice hints. The detailed and vibrant middle weight flavors possess a wonderfully silky mouth feel that also culminates in a tight and linear finish where a cherry pit character emerges. This is really quite lovely; indeed it's textbook Charmes.

Tasted blind, the 2015 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Charmes exhibits an attractive bouquet of sweet cherry fruit, cassis and plums, complemented by some savory bass notes of grilled squab and chocolate. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, quite hefty and ample, with juicy acids, fine but firm tannins and good overall shape and substance. It's shutting down and will demand some patience. 2022 - 2040
