Domaine Taupenot-Merme Charmes-Chambertin 2019 France Red Bulgaria This wine is extremely approachable

This wine is extremely approachable now with an hour of air or so but should sail for several years in the cellar

This prestigious vintage presents a wine whose bouquet has not yet fully opened but that we already feel very expressive

plus a terrific tug of warm earth

This rich and intense wine will benefit from careful cellaring for a decade

Domaine Taupenot-Merme Charmes-Chambertin 2019 France Red Bulgaria This wine is extremely approachableThe 2019 Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru has a straightforward focused bouquet with brambly red fruit briary and tea leaf aromas though it just lacks the assertiveness and intensity you seek from a Grand Cru. The palate is better with a light spiced opening good weight and cohesion with black pepper and sea salt infused red fruit. Quite Mazoyres in terms of structure towards the finish this will benefit from 4 6 years in bottle. 93 Pts Vinous
