Edouard Delaunay Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 2019

Tasting Notes

Concentrated flavors of spiced plum and black-cherry preserve flood the palate of this unusually muscular expression of Charmes-Chambertin. A product of a hot, dry vintage, it's a bold, textured wine accentuated by streaks of vanilla, cinnamon and caramel. Pillowy in tannins and open in demeanor, it's welcome young but should improve through 2029 at least. (Anna Lee C. Iijima,Wine Enthusiast,July 1, 2022)
