2007 Domaine Frédéric Magnien Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru

Good bright, deep red. Complex, pure aromas of tangy raspberry, cherry, smoked meat and flowers. Plush on entry, then fat and sweet in the middle, showing a smokier quality than the Latricieres and conveying a less-primary impression of higher pH. In a more feminine style, and yet the dusty tannins show a slight toughness.
