Charmes-Chambertin Grand cru 2016

- 94 points -

This was going through a late malolactic when I tasted it in Burgundy so a little tricky to get a handle on. But in London in January, it was easier to taste. It’s not the most charming of Charmes, it must be said, but the wine is made to age. It has appealing wood spices, umami and fresh tobacco notes and a core of dense red fruits.
