Note di degustazione
The 2016 Charmes-Chambertin Très Vieilles Vignes has the most refined and compelling bouquet of Roty’s three Grand Crus: exquisite delineation and precision, blackberry and raspberry coulis, hints of crushed stone and pressed rose petal aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly toasty black fruit, very intense and multi-dimensional. Great precision on the finish, with blood orange and hints of liquorice lingering on the aftertaste. This just rivets you to the spot. Tasted at the Domaine.

The 2016 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru Très Vieilles Vignes is showing superbly from bottle, unfurling in the glass with a complex bouquet in which notes of blackcurrants, cherries, spiced plums and dark chocolate mingle with nuances of peony, orange rind and grilled meats. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, deep and dense, with a layered and immensely concentrated core that largely conceals the wine's rich structuring tannins, concluding with a long, resonant finish. This Charmes' precision and definition rank it a touch higher than the domaine's 2015, though it would be fascinating to taste the two side-by-side.
Deep ruby. Brooding, profound aromas and flavors of blackberry, boysenberry, black cherry, licorice and animal fur, complicated by smoky soil tones. Wonderfully thick and dense; primary and backward but not at all hard. Most impressive today on the refined back end, finishing with noble, seamless tannins, intense black cherry and violet lift, and terrific pungent stony minerality. Another stunning wine in the making from a vineyard that was planted in 1882. This Charmes is Chambertin-like in its soil complexity, power and grip.
