2012 Alex Gambal Chambolle Musigny Les Charmes Premier Cru

(92 Points) Gambal always seems to do well with this wine and 2012 is no exception. The nose opens with a slight bit of reduction but the underlying fruit clearly seems ripe. This sense of ripeness is corroborated by the phenolically mature tannins shaping the lacy and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that possess good volume and balance on the palate coating finish. A classic Charmes.   Burghound
