Did I ever say I loved Chambolle Charmes (Ponsot, Clerget etc., etc.)
2005 Alex Gambal, Chambolle 1er Les Charmes
Deep cherry-red colour. The nose is a lovely layered effort with faintly perfumed top-notes and a soft core of dark fruit. In the mouth there is well submerged structure but it’s under lovely concentrated and relatively deep fruit that widens in the mid-palate before impressively lingering in the finish. Plenty of dry extract here that will reward patience.
