Domaine Dublère, Charmes-Chambertin 2006

This is a rare bird – the 2006 Charmes-Chambertin from Blair Pethel and Domaine Dublère. This is showing very well currently, rich and still fruity – with a quite openly knit structure. Plenty of stuffing showing its grand cru intensity on the table with Mugnier Marechale 2009. It’s a rich wine – alcohol around 14 – and with the fruit having some discrete prune notes – a reminder of the ripeness level. Drinking well now – would not save this for many years as one would expect the alcohol to become more forward in the wine. A treat as of now.
