This hedonistic Syrah could use another 5+ years in bottle to unwind and will be long-lived in the cellar

but it could well do that if given a chance with at least a few years of bottle age

very lifted

concentrated and driving finish that displays more than a little of the classic austerity of young Clos de Vougeot

finishing on a long-lingering licorice note

Rene Bouvier, Charmes Chambertin Brut Zero This hedonistic Syrah could use(from a ~. 30 ha parcel in Mazoyres). A beautifully layered mlange features notes of red and black pinot fruit, violet, earth, tea and a touch of forest floor. There is fine density to the quite powerful, dusty and robust bigger bodied flavors that terminate in a chewy, moderately austere and compact finale. This is very Mazoyres in character, but the balance is impeccable as is the development potential.
