Michele et Patrice Rion, Chambolle Musigny Charmes other_regions_italy This is a big but

This is a big but classy effort that should require around 15 years to arrive at its full majority

This is also extremely ripe with notes of cassis

Macadamia nut

drink this thick

low-intensity fruit and integrated acidity

Michele et Patrice Rion, Chambolle Musigny Charmes other_regions_italy This is a big but(from 65+ year old vines; 25% whole clusters). Slightly more prominent though by no means dominant wood sets off a spicier array of poached plum, black raspberry, violet and rose petal. There is both more volume and richness to the seductively textured and concentrated but intense medium weight plus flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the impressively persistent, well balanced and solidly complex finale. Excellent.
