Dominique Laurent
Grande Cuvée Vieilles Vignes Charmes-Chambertin Pinot Noir
Tasted blind, which is a good way to taste Dominique Laurent's wine: cuts out a lot of prejudice. I loved this wine when it was released and was reasonably happy with where it is now. There's still a slight 'cola' note about the oak but the volume of the perfume and sweet harmonious texture are still there in abundance.
Great year for Laurent and Charmes VV is one of the best in his big stable
