thick and sweet

The mouth feel of the medium-bodied flavors is notably finer than that of the Frémiets with the same minerality and punch

It's still rich and full-bodied

intense and mineral-driven broad- shouldered flavors manage to display both good richness and delineation on the more overtly austere

spice and liqueur-like dark cherry aromas

Michele et Patrice Rion, Chambolle Musigny Charmes other_regions_italy thick and sweet(from 65+ year old vines; 25% whole clusters). Slightly more prominent though by no means dominant wood sets off a spicier array of poached plum, black raspberry, violet and rose petal. There is both more volume and richness to the seductively textured and concentrated but intense medium weight plus flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the impressively persistent, well balanced and solidly complex finale. Excellent.
