Charmes Chambertin, Domaine Dugat-Py 2018

Tasting Notes

Once again there is an abundance of floral influences to the very ripe yet fresh aromas of plum liqueur, cassis and the sauvage. There is copious dry extract that imparts a caressing and seductive texture to the broad-shouldered flavors that are at once powerful yet refined on the firmly structured and youthfully austere finish. This too is a 'buy and forget' wine.

One third comes from Mazoyères-Chambertin, the rest from Charmes itself. Picked on the afternoon of 29th August. 9 barrels made, 6 new and 3 one year old. Imperial purple throughout with a rumbustious nose. A wealth of deep strawberry fruit backed by a little black cherry, then quite high acidity which is no bad thing in 2018. Tasted: November 2019
