Plummy color tinged with tan, nose of woodsy mushroom, brown bread turned earth. Strong entry of cherry bursting through earth and cedar root. Chewy tannins show this very much alive and brimming with secret power! So good, so nice!

Mesmerizing cherry notes everywhere with lavishly elegant texture. Drinking amazingly well, but might be better in ten years. — 5 months ago

Yes a Gran Cru. It is charming but over all for what it is just OK. The wine lacks depth and to a certain extent fruit. So it pains me to say that i will open and drink up the remaining bottles. c'est la vie especially when your passion is burgundies. — 7 months ago

Slightly deeper colour , brighter ruby centre . More crunchy summer fruits , red currant , cherry , blackberry , floral notes, more fresh and vivacious than the Tortochot . On the palate this is slightly better balanced with a rounder more red fruited character , red cherry , raspberry , mineral , just slightly smoky hint. Sweet rounded but still grippy tannin , balanced fresher acidity, mineral stony touches, saline finish . Better length . Young but showing quite well , even better in 3-5 years and will last well at least another 5-8. This was a little more nuanced , fresh and elegant in style than the Tortochot, certainly with more polish in regards the tannins . — 23 days ago

Cherry, amarena and amaretto on the nose. Crunch freshly cut red fruits, nice little depth and stratification. harsh tannins which when will integrate will give shape to a beautifully drinking old school Bordeaux. — 4 months ago

9.0

Medium light ruby . Quite high toned , ripe sweet dark fruits , blackberry compote , dark cherry with a touch of black pepper and floral notes . Slightly sweet and sappy . More blackberry and red currant , ripe strawberry . Mineral , stony touches . Quite sombre tannins , a bit grippy with a touch of bitterness . Balanced acidity and Ok length . Needs a little more time . Probably better in 5 years or so and will last well a further 5-10 . Overall a little severe and rustic perhaps , but time might help round out some of those hard edges. — 23 days ago

When you see “Trés Vieilles Vignes” scripted across the top of the bottle, you gotta wonder how old is “very old”. Welp…how about 120+ years. Easily some of the oldest in Burgundy. Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2016 Charmes-Chambertin “Trés Vieilles Vignes” pours a deep ruby color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe and tart; red and black fruits: Marionberries, pomegranate, bruised strawberry, roses, sous bois, mushrooms, and fine warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. This is the kind of experience you want in Grand Cru burgundy. There’s so much concentration and balance. A brilliant wine. Drink now through 2046+. — 3 months ago
