short and mildly warm bitter pit fruit-inflected finale

An exotically perfumed bouquet presents candied dark berries and cherry-cola

Taupenot Merme, Charmes Chambertin other_regions The Chaves believe it isA slightly riper and more complex nose of very earthy and slightly sauvage dark berry fruit aromas set of by a touch of wood spice leads to dense and attractively textured medium full flavors that possess a seductive mouth feel and I like the subtle sense of harmony as this is balanced, long and delicious while remaining altogether serious.
