Note di degustazione
Good bright, deep red. Knockout nose offers black cherry, dried flowers, minerals, mocha and chocolate. Fat and silky on entry, then taut in the middle in spite of the wine's superb breadth. This is more backward than the Lavaux and will require several years in bottle to expand. Today this saturates the palate without leaving any impression of weight. An element of peppery pungency firms and lifts the long finish.

Pure, bright fresh cherry on the nose of Claude Dugat’s 2008 Charmes Chambertin is accompanied to the palate by a suffusion of chalk, forest floor aura, and invigoratingly salinity. This long, lean, refreshing expression of its vintage gains a sense of red meat juices and takes on ever-sweeter fruit expression as it opens to the air. Oscillating interactions of its multiple layers serve for finishing fascination, while its generous fresh fruit never flags and its underlying tannins boast real refinement. I would look for 12-15 years of satisfying stimulation here. Claude Dugat reports that his triage in 2008 was more for rot than under-ripe berries, since his routine willingness to resort to drastic crop-dropping serves to guarantee that the fruit matures. He did however report back-off slightly on the total length of maceration. Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083
Good deep red. Captivating aromas of black raspberry, gibier and minerals. Lusher and sweeter than the premier crus but still with the almost peppery acidity of the vintage here. Spicy, penetrating and explosive wine combining dark fruits, chocolate, flowers and underbrush. The note of fruity peppercorn carries through to the very long and wild finish. This one tickled my G-spot.
