Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru, “Les Charmes”

Les Charmes lies toward the south of Chambolle, near the border of Vougeot, and Barthod owns a quarter of a hectare here. This vineyard tends to produce wines of grace, delicacy, and floral exuberance—ample in fruit but not overly powerful. It shows similar complexity to the “Les Baudes,” but with a far more serene sensibility, as well as a more finely articulated minerality.
