"This have evolved beautifully since my last review with its ultra-pure aromas of peach, apricot, pear and spiced white peach leading to ripe, concentrated and superbly precise flavors that display plenty of mid-palate fat and ample minerality that this part of Charmes always seems to impart to the wines and overall, this is a stunningly harmonious wine of finesse that delivers breathtaking length . . . . it is a seriously, seriously impressive effort that is no where near ready."
