The 2010 Charmes-Chambertin is impeccably layered from start to finish. Dark cherries, plums and exotic spices are woven together in a rich fabric of notable class. The Charmes is indescribably elegant and also deceptive today in its openness, but it is a wine built for the cellar. This is going to be a fascinating wine to follow. Anticipated maturity: 2025-2040.

Claude Dugat’s 2010s are fabulous. The wines have a sense of tension and transparency that serves to balance the richness of the fruit that is the hallmark of the house style.
