Tasting notes
The 2009 Charmes-Chambertin Les Mazoyères comes across a big, powerful and super intense. It bursts from the glass with huge dark fruit, freshly cut flowers, tar and licorice, all of which come together with notable intensity. The 2009 shows off superb textural richness all the way through to the finish. The Charmes is young, young, young.

Sweet oakiness overlays this. Or at least sweetness, then oakiness. Rather uncomfortable to taste at the moment. Awkward. (JR)
