2023 Faiveley Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Charmes

Once again moderate wood is present on the more floral-infused nose of bright cherry, spice and exotic tea scents. The refined but quite punchy medium weight flavors exude a bracing salinity on the mildly austere, tension-filled and beautifully long finish. This is refined but it's not necessarily a Charmes of lace and grace as focused power lurks in the background and thus some forbearance is in order.
