Description

Product Description The Domaine Chanson Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru 2015 is a masterful expression of Burgundy’s finest terroirs, representing the very best of Charmes-Chambertin. This Grand Cru showcases an elegance and refinement that comes from meticulous vineyard care and traditional winemaking.

With its upright, well-defined structure and incredible freshness, the Domaine Chanson Charmes Chambertin 2015 is a wine that demands patience, with its anticipated maturity window from 2025 to 2040.
