    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    A more serious and stern Charmes than usual with quite some intensity to it. Nuanced, multi-layered ripe red berry and cherry fruits and a fresh, savoury minerality, ruddered by fine-cut tannins. This has a sprinter's toned strength and a ballerina's poise. Christophe Perrot-Minot has a stunning parcel of old vines in the prime haut part of Charmes, opposite Rousseau's Chambertin. There is much less clay here than further down the slope, which gives a very refined wine.

    Critic Reviews

    Neal Martin,
    Vinous
    The 2020 Charmes-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru has an opulent, almost Nebbiolo-like bouquet that is missing the complexity of even many Gevrey Premier Crus. It is a little overripe. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannins and black fruit. It is a little austere on the mid-palate, with a grippy and quite assertive finish. Where is the charm in this Charmes? It oxidizes in the glass and so was not rated by anyone in the group. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
