A classic Charmes

with copious quantities of black raspberry and cherry fruit intermixed with spicy oak

For all its plushness

there is no other climat in Corton that can match it for sheer size

cedar and sweet pipe tobacco gradually open up in a wine that is more giving on the palate than it is in its aromatics

Duroche, Chambertin Clos De Beze Vintage:2016 A classic Charmes(from a . 25 ha parcel; vinified with 20% whole clusters). An exuberantly fresh and spicy nose combines notes of cherry and dark currant with those of plum, sandalwood and violet. The middle weight plus flavors exude a beguiling inner mouth perfume and a plenitude of minerality on the focused and almost painfully intense bitter cherry pit infused finish. This is firmly structured and very classy in sum, this is lovely stuff. (91 94) 2032+
