Philippe Charlopin-Parizot, Charmes Chambertin other_regions_australia The colour of the wine

The colour of the wine has not notably deepened

though it remains bright and precise thanks to a strong vein of acidity

These grapes are always picked last

Provided that you have the patience to cellar this for at least 6 to 8 years this is worth considering

Philippe Charlopin-Parizot, Charmes Chambertin other_regions_australia The colour of the wine(from a 50 50 split of Charmes and Mazoyres). This too is pungently reduced. Much more interesting are the dense, delicious and vibrant flavors that possess both fine concentration and power while displaying a lovely underlying tension on the lingering finish that isnt quite as complex as the Clos de Vougeot, at least not yet though that may well change with bottle age.
