"From vines that abut Griotte and were originally planted in 1910 though there has been a lot of replanting since; aged in 75% new oak. A distinctly earthy blend of pure red berry liqueur aromas trimmed in discreet wood introduces rich and relatively full-bodied flavors that possess excellent punch and precision, all wrapped in a balanced and impressively persistent finish. This is notably more concentrated than the 1ers not to mention significantly more firmly structured plus I like the sense of controlled power. In sum, this is a classic Charmes."
