satiny and textural

That linear flinty note is just terrific

The 2004 Cristal is 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay

This is not as complex as the Charmes but it’s notably finer and should also age extremely well

Satin-like in texture

Bruno Clair, Chambertin Clos De Beze Vintage:2019 satiny and textural(two thirds of the vines were planted in 1912 and the remainder in 1973). Discreet wood influence surrounds the intensely spicy and earthy nose that is at once elegant yet animale and this sauvage character extends to the very rich, powerful and well muscled flavors that possess a seductively textured yet firm finish of imposing length. This is a big but focused Bze that has already begun to shut down. Patience will be required. 94 2023+
