Louis Jadot Charmes Chambertin 2015 skus_33460 First Impression: Nicely gin like

First Impression: Nicely gin like in a Juniper kind of way without being overwhelming

with a few short periods of heat

but either way make sure that you get some before it's gone

Partial malolactic fermentation preserved the remarkable freshness of the grape and aging in small French oak barrels provided depth and balance with extended character

highly perfumed bouquet evokes fresh dark berries

Louis Jadot Charmes Chambertin 2015 skus_33460 First Impression: Nicely gin likeThe 2015 Charmes Chambertin has a rounded, generous bouquet with scents of red cherries, kirsch and incense. The palate is sweet and precocious on the entry with brown spices infusing the red cherry fruit, although I found the new oak a little conspicuous towards the finish. I would look for more refinement once this grand cru is in bottle.
