Ponsot Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes - 2008 (750ml) Size:750ml Straight-lacedThe 2008 Chambolle Charmes is quite similar in aromatic and flavor profile to the Chambolle AC, but with greater depth, grip and complexity. The bouquet is a fine mlange of blood orange, black cherries, a touch of plum, chocolate, complex soil tones and a smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is full bodied and rock solid to the sappy core, with lovely succulence on the attack giving way to a very tangy, modestly tannic and beautifully focused finish
