Description:

Joseph RotyCharmes Chambertin Tres Vieilles Vignes2002
Cote de Nuits
"A heavily toasted nose with spice, wood and tar nuances frames ripe but fresh black pinot fruit and cassis aromas that also display an extraordinary panoply of secondary nuances, including earth, underbrush, leather, soy and spice. The powerful, rich and utterly delicious big-bodied and very concentrated flavors coat and stain the palate and completely buffer the now softening tannic spine on the superbly long finish. In short, this is flat out incredible juice and while it's clearly quite oaky, the wood somehow works quite well with the wine even though it's far from invisible. As to drinkability, I would probably opt to hold the '02 Charmes for a few more years but it could easily be drunk now with pleasure." Burghound, 95 pts. 05/11
3 bottles
Estimate $800-1,200
