Tasting notes
Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2014 tasting, the 2014 Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru from Duroche has an attractive bouquet with black cherries, bergamot and a touch of black tea. I appreciate the restraint here. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine line of acidity, quite pure with a gentle if not complex finish with pleasant salinite. Not bad at all and it improves in the glass, gaining substance and vigor with each swirl of the glass. Tasted September 2017. Oct 2017, www.robertparker.com

About the producer
Domaine Duroché has, under Pierre Duroché, become one of the most sought-out and respected wine domaines in Gevrey-Chambertin. The wines are delicate and detailed, yet with old-vine intensity, a clear sense of place and style – and it’s easy to see why they’ve rapidly become so in-demand.
