Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru from Domaine Faiveley is one of the estate’s most opulent wines, yet it never loses its innate elegance. The bouquet combines dark cherries, small red berries and cassis with floral nuances, gentle spice and hints of toasted oak.

The Great Vertical Tasting: A wine through the mirror of time.
