The 2002 Mercurey 1er Cru Clos de Champs Martin Cuvée Carline is very pretty, offering up aromas of plums, sweet berry fruit and warm spices, framed by delicate top notes of heather and candied citrus peel. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and fine-boned, with powdery tannins and lively acids, Lorenzon observes that, since he doesn't chaptalize, this wine attained scarcely 12% alcohol. Stylistically, we're already a long way from the richly extracted, oaky register of the 1990s, without yet having attained all the polish and elegance of the late 2000s at this address.
