2008 Dublère Charmes-Chambertin

By billn on June 30, 2010

It needs some swirling to lift a little reduction. Dense fruit, but much tighter than the preceding Morey. Instantly this is from a different category; it starts narrow but widens, showing a super cream-framed depth. Long, mouth-watering and very, very successful.

The aromas have width, are super-dense but deep and fresh. This has really 1st class texture. It is linear and mineral, the intensity growing all the time. Truly excellent – chapeau!

There’s a dense core of fruit on the nose. It’s wider and more mouth-filling than the (slightly) austere Charlemagne. Very good intensity in the mid-palate too. Heavenly.

True Charmes. The wide and comforting nose is ripe and rather plush – lovely cherry fruit. Density, concentration and lots of dimension – chew and you’ll find even more. Understated acidity, yet there’s some cream-wrapped minerality too. An excellent Charmes.

From the Pernand side of the hill – had to wait until 17th September to harvest these grapes. 50% new oak. The complex nose has a hint of understatement but shows plenty of floral notes and maybe a hint of SO2. Like the Chassagne, it’s hard to take the intensity, though this time it has just a little fat to smooth the texture. Really good weight of extract – this is very impressive.
