flowers and wet earth

A much more deeply pitched nose of dark berry fruit

velvety textures and ocean of licorice

the 2005 turns more delicate with time in the glass as its silkier and floral qualities become more evident

This is a very refined showing from Angelo Gaja

Perrot Minot, Charmes Chambertin Vv Vintage:2016 flowers and wet earth(from a 1. 5 ha parcel situated directly across from Domaine Rousseaus parcel of Chambertin). A brooding and intensely earthy nose features notes of dark berries, plum, smoked tea and a hint of animale that is also reflected by the focused and beautifully intense medium bodied flavors that possess an unusually refined mouth feel. There is muscle here but essentially this is a Charmes of refinement though the hugely long finish is explosive. (92 95)
