Charmes Chambertin Cuvee Des Merles Domaine Ponsot 2011 (750ML)

This is also quite elegant with a restrained and distinctly cool nose that features wild red berries, warm earth, humus, underbrush and game hints. There is impressive richness to the bold and robust flavors that are supported by notably more prominent tannins on the mildly rustic but solidly persistent finish. The extraction is more noticeable here than in the prior wines but not so much that it unbalances the finish...91-93 BH 1/13
