"Interestingly, though the Morey AC showed just a bit of sur maturité on the nose, the Michelots’ 2015 les Charrières is very pure and nicely reserved in personality. The nose wafts from the glass in a very classic blend of black cherries, dark berries, woodsmoke, game, bitter chocolate and a fine base of dark soil tones. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very nicely structured, with a plump core of black fruit, fine soil signature and a long, tangy and moderately chewy finish. Good juice in the making."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
