earth and green tea scents

This bitter pit fruit-inflected effort will need to add depth to merit the upper-end of my projected range

This is quite an elegant wine with lovely harmony and strikingly good balance

David Duband, Chambertin Vintage:2014 (vinified with 70% whole clusters)(from a . 22 ha parcel). A subtle application of wood easily allows the softly spicy array of game, underbrush and cool red berry scents to shine. There is excellent volume and power to the mineral driven broad shouldered flavors that deliver huge length on the explosive finish that also displays a hint of warmth. This is impressive but perhaps slightly less well balanced than either the Charmes or the Latricires. (91 94) 2029+
