Charmes Chambertin, Domaine Taupenot-Merme 2010

Tasting Notes

A ripe, reticent and brooding nose features spiced plum, black raspberry, red currant and herbal notes, all of which are suffused by ferrous earth nuances. The powerful, concentrated and exceptionally rich broad-shouldered flavors possess plenty of muscle as the dense and firmof muscle andll of which are cellarings full apogee.ry firm effort will requirethe context of the appellation, all wrappe mouth coating tannins will require all of 15 years to resolve. I very much like this as it's a Charmes of imposing size and weight along with explosive length yet it retains a fine sense of harmony and balance. It's one for the back of the cellar though.
