An overtly ripe yet agreeably fresh nose mixes notes of spice

although it tapers in a little toward the finish when you would expect it to fan out

along with a hint of exotic spices that builds steadily in the glass

but manages to deliver - and then some

Made after very long ageing in different oak vats and barrels

Trapet Pere et Fils, Latricieres Chambertin other_regions_italy An overtly ripe yet agreeablyBigger and richer than the Chapelle if not quite as intense or fine with beautifully complex, almost lush aromas of red fruits and traces of both earth and game followed by fine, precise flavors and wonderful length. This is sweet and complete, indeed seamless and comes across as more compact yet also more powerful. I prefer this in that it delivers pure power without weight with that lovely velvety quality on the finish.
