Chambolle-Musigny 1er cru les Charmes 2014

An exceptionally pretty nose is composed by notes of red cherry, raspberry, floral and discreet sandalwood nuances. There is terrific underlying tension to the racy, precise and refined middle weight flavors that exhibit a subtle minerality on the ever-so-mildly austere finale. This is much more classic Chambolle in comparison to the Beaux Bruns but note that there is a firm tannic spine and this will require cellaring.

About Burghound.com

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
