Wine Reviews
An attractively complex and relatively airy nose offers up an array of plum, floral and soft spice scents. The overtly round and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors possess very good volume along with good verve on the balanced finale that offers very good persistence.
Shy in aroma, this red reveals cherry and floral notes, matched to a crystalline profile. Fresh and focused, this remains fused to a firm structure on the lingering, minerally finish.
Opening in the glass with aromas of cherries, red plums and cassis mingled with subtle hints of coniferous forest floor, the 2017 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Charmes (Maison Louis Jadot) is medium to full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, with an open-knit core of succulent fruit framed by melting tannins. Attractively balanced and immediate but only moderately concentrated.
