CHARMES CHAMBERTIN Grand Cru Domaine J. Confuron Cotetidot 2017

(from a .30 ha parcel in Charmes proper). Reduction and wood aromas reveal little else. There is terrific punch to the beautifully well-detailed middle weight plus flavors that exude a lovely sense of underlying tension on the solidly persistent finish. This isn’t as dense as the Clos de Vougeot but it is a bit finer but even so, plenty of patience will still be necessary.

MOREY SAINT DENIS 1er Cru Charmes Domaine Lignier-Michelot 2018

The 2018 Morey-Saint-Denis Charmes 1er Cru has a seductive nose with pure red berry fruit, crushed stone, sous-bois and light orange rind scents, very cohesive and beautifully integrated with the oak. It seems to blossom in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, quite edgy, focused and fresh. Not quite as persistent as others, yet it exudes energy and complexity towards the finish. Nice one! Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting.
