CHARMES CHAMBERTIN Grand Cru Domaine Lignier-Michelot 2014
(from tiny grapes in what Lignier described as the last plot in Mazoyères before Charmes; 13. 2% natural alcohol; 60% vendange entier; Lignier did just a single pigeage late in the fermentation): Deep red-ruby. Superripe but brooding aromas of cassis, blackberry, smoked meat, game, licorice and bitter chocolate. Plush, thick and sweet but with surprising definition and lift to its violet and boysenberry flavors. Not a particularly mineral style but a major mouthful of sweet, supple purple fruits. This wine has a rather high pH of 3. 7 but does not lack for energy. Lignier noted that he used to make this wine with 100% whole clusters. He farms these vines for the owner but noted that they will probably be sold before the 2016 harvest.
CHARMES CHAMBERTIN Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru Domaine Christophe Perrot-Minot 2014
Offers cherry, plum, earth and spice aromas and flavors, showing good definition. Balanced and structured, this picks up a mineral note on the finish.
