2010 Domaine Arlaud Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, Cote de Nuits, France 750ml

"Good bright, deep red. Dark cherry, wild herbs and violet on the nose; smells powerful. Chewy and tactile on the palate but a bit youthfully closed-in, showing imploded black fruit flavors and conveying a classically dry impression. Not the last word in depth or length but this displays very good energy and lift--and more obvious tannins than the Clos de la Roche."
