Note di degustazione
The 2020 Charmes-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru has an opulent, almost Nebbiolo-like bouquet that is missing the complexity of even many Gevrey Premier Crus. It is a little overripe. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannins and black fruit. It is a little austere on the mid-palate, with a grippy and quite assertive finish. Where is the charm in this Charmes? It oxidizes in the glass and so was not rated by anyone in the group. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Right opposite Chambertin. Well-drained clay-limestone soil – shallower than the Mazoyères. 80-year-old vines. Cask sample. At first an immobile portion of sweet red and black fruit, and a touch of blueberry. Then it springs into life, with added spice, driven on by succulent acidity totally in balance with the weight and mass of the wine. The tannins are very fine. (MH)
The 2020 Charmes-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru just shows a little more of the whole bunch compared to say, the Griottes, though it lends an attractive peppery bass note to the red cherry and strawberry top notes. The oak is nicely integrated here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, taut and fresh, gently building to a slightly creamy-texture, seductive finish. Lovely.
