2018 Domaine de la Vougeraie Charmes-Chambertin Les Mazoyeres Grand Cru

The 2018 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru Les Mazoyères wafts from the glass with notes of wild berries, cherries and cassis mingled with dried flowers and rich soil tones. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with powdery structuring tannins, a nicely concentrated core of fruit and racy balancing acids. This parcel contains the domaine's oldest vines and is the source of its sélection massale.

The 2018 Chambertin-Chambertin les Mazoyères Grand Cru comes from Vougeraie’s oldest vines (104 years of age, and the source for their sélection massale ). It has an attractive bouquet, one that might dupe you into thinking there is some whole-bunch addition – but there is none! It’s just naturally earthy with potent autumn woodland scents. The medium-bodied palate offers fine-grained tannins, great tension and focus, and real precision and poise on the sustained finish. This is an absolute delight!
