Light ruby

An impressive Chapelle with more size and weight than usual yet the extra muscle does not compromise the balance or elegance

(88-91)/2020+

Here there is enough reduction to overshadow the underlying fruit so if you are tempted to try a bottle young in the interest of curiosity

There is an opulent mouth feel to the pure and palate coating flavors that brim with an impressive reserve of dry extract before terminating in a long and salineinfused finish

Michele et Patrice Rion, Chambolle Musigny Charmes other_regions_italy Light ruby(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.
