Gallois Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru 2019 (750ML)

91-94 BH

Note: from vines that abut Griotte and were originally planted in 1910 though there has been a lot of replanting since
Tasting note: A wonderfully fresh, even perfumed, nose of both red and black pinot fruit, warm earth, spice and a similar dollop of wood influence. There is excellent underlying tension to the moderately concentrated flavors that possess a more sophisticated texture before culminating in a balanced finish. Like several wines in the range, the supporting tannins are relatively fine-grained and overall, this should amply repay 12 to 15 years of cellaring.—Sweetspot. Allen Meadows, Burghound
