Details

The 2015 vintage, Faiveley's Charmes Chambertin presents itself with a captivating deep ruby red color, enticing the eye with its richness. The nose is a symphony of aromas, with layers of small red fruits, spices, and delicate floral notes intertwining harmoniously. Upon tasting, the palate is treated to a luxurious experience, as silky smooth tannins caress the senses, revealing the wine's elegant character. While already indulgent, this wine exhibits a youthful vigor that suggests it will evolve gracefully with time. Its full potential is yet to be fully realized, promising even greater complexity and depth with a few more years of aging in the bottle.


Antonio Galloni - 91 Points

"Moderately saturated medium red. Wild aromas of briary raspberry, rose petal and spices complicated by hints of leather and underbrush. Fine-grained on entry, then a bit youthfully aggressive in the middle palate, with its flavors of raspberry, redcurrant and brown spices showing moderate depth and sweetness for grand cru. Notes of tobacco and dried flowers add complexity. Tannins are dusty and strong but just barely avoid dryness. This needs time, but does it have the inherent sweetness and silkiness to improve? My sample softened nicely with 24 hours in the recorked bottle."
