Henri Magnien, Ruchottes Chambertin other_regions_italy This is a bit atypical(from a . 16 ha parcel). A moderately toasty nose grudgingly reveals its aromas of pretty essence of black cherry, truffle and soft earth. The super sleek, mineral driven and beautifully intense middle weight flavors possess a high refined but impressively punchy, youthfully austere and chiseled finish that exhibits outstanding length. This is very classy and I very much like the innate sense of balance.
