The Charmes-Chambertin has wonderful precision and mineralité on the nose with fresh strawberry, orange peel and dark cherries all perfectly combined, though it is not an “intense” perfume. The palate is medium-bodied with an appealing ripe texture. There is a savoury note in the background, with fine weight on the crisp, strawberry finish. This is a very composed Charmes.

Thibault Liger-Belair has dialled back the oak in his wines in 2010, allowing the fruit to express itself. This is a very classy Charmes: racy and perfumed with stony minerality and succulent, sweet fruit. 2016-25 Rating: 95 Tim Atkin MW, www.timatkin.com (Feb 2012)

The lack of the word 'domaine' in the name signals that this is a négociant wine from Thibault Liger-Belair. On the whole Thibault buys grapes having tended the vines with his own team, so that the wines are domaine wines in all but name.
