Chambolle-Musigny 1er cru les Charmes 2014
Bright, pale yellow. Subdued, slightly minty aromas of crushed stone and lime blossom; not as pristine as the Blagny and a touch metallic today. Then densely packed and bright on the palate, with lemon and peach fruit flavors lifted by spices and minerals. Not exactly hard today but needs time to absorb some of its acidity. Light on its feet in the style of the year. Finishes with sneaky length.
