floral notes and cassis nuances

Tight tannins help to stitch it together into a comprehensive whole

Vougeraie, Charmes Chambertin Mazoyeres Vintage:2012 floral notes and cassis nuancesThis is quite aromatically similar to the Corton with perhaps just a bit less sauvage character. There is outstanding volume and intensity to the imposingly scaled flavors that possess first rate midpalate concentration along with an abundance of dry extract that imparts a velvety texture to the firmly structured and beautifully persistent finish. This well balanced effort is classic Mazoyres and very much built to age. (92 94) 2031+
