Vineyard Charmes Chambertin

So Charmes; round and ample, immediately charming. Big. This is really big, and soft as a goosedown pillow. And it would give a good night's sleep too; just luxurious. Bernard says this wine tends to put on weight and flesh in bottle (more?! I find myself wondering if it is possible). There is great depth here, but the balance, the harmony, is what we feel for now.

The 2009 Charmes-Chambertin bursts onto the palate with layers of dark, finely-knit fruit. This is an expansive, broad-shouldered wine that blossoms with notable richness and depth. The intensity of the fruit flows through gracefully to the long, intense finish. Rating: 93-97 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Nov 2013)

The 2009 Charmes-Chambertin is beautifully balanced and harmonious from start to finish. This regal, aristocratic Charmes fleshes out in all directions, showing off its considerable elegance and finesse. A persistent vein of minerality gives the wine its sense of proportion and energy. Dugat used 50% whole bunches on his Charmes. There is so much pure pleasure in every taste. Drinking range: 2019 - 2039 Rating: 97 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Apr 2012)

Bright red-ruby. At once liqueur-like and sappy on the nose, with a slightly roasted quality to the maraschino cherry, licorice and earth flavors. Huge and sweet but with a surprising spine of acidity giving the wine excellent inner-mouth energy and cleansing the palate on the superb, mounting finish. Really lovely sweetness of fruit here, with the fine tannins arriving late. In spite of this wine's considerable early appeal, I'd give it a decade in the cellar. The ripe phenolics of 2009, made possible by moderate yields at this address, have played well to Dugat's normally extractive style. Rating: 94 Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (Mar 2012)
