Product Description
Seductive and gorgeously elegant, the Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes (50 cases) exhibits fragrant aromas of sweet, floral red fruits and awesome flavors of luscious cherries with a touch of earth. Medium-to-full bodied, velvety-textured, intensely concentrated, this gem should be drunk between 2004-2015. This note is the result of tastings I did in Burgundy between January 7 and January 29. The wine was tasted from cask, not bottle. Pinot Noir, a fragile varietal, reacts poorly to fining, filtration, and careless bottling techniques, I recommend caution when considering buying a red burgundy based on cask samples. I called it as I tasted it, and hope the bottled wine reflects the quality of the samples I was provided. - Pierre Rovani The Wine Advocate, June 1997.
