2012 Domaine Ghislaine Barthod Chambolle-Musigny

Good bright red. Aromas of blackberry, violet and bitter chocolate. Juicy, strong dark fruit flavors are nicely framed by sound acidity and firm tannic spine. Less creamy and red-fruity than usual for this village wine, showing a slight herbal dryness and a youthfully tight character.
