Tasting notes
The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes 1er Cru has a more backward nose than its peers. It offers darker fruit, and hints of struck flint and graphite tincture the aromatics. Maybe just a bit more whole bunches here? The palate is well-balanced with fine tannins and very well-judged natural acidity. It has a lovely, harmonious, silky texture and delivers the roundness and sensuality you seek in a Chambolle. Excellent. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Charmes wafts from the glass with aromas of sweet raspberries, cherries and red fruit compote mingled with rose petals and spices. Medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless, with a cool core of pure, vibrant fruit, melting tannins and a saline finish, it has turned out beautifully.
Cask sample. Mid crimson. Solid depth, dry wine with polished tannins. At this stage the dry solidity of the tannins make it one for the cellar over the long term. (JR)
