The 2019 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is serious, unwinding in the glass with scents of raspberries, cherries, woodsmoke, orange rind and petals that are framed by a deft touch of new oak. Full-bodied, velvety and concentrated, it's a bit more overtly structured than the domaine's Echézeaux (which preceded it in this tasting), with a tightly wound core and chalky back-end grip.
Rich full purple. The nose expresses all the charm one would hope for, raspberries and roses, a sensual start with a more structured finish. Exactly what one wants from Charmes. There is very good length here.
