Vajra, Piedmont, Italy Size:75cl The nose for this Charmes-ChambertinThis comes from a five hectare plot with a mix of soil types, located in a south to south east facing amphitheatre at an altitude of 320 340 meters. Its rich and ripe on the nose, with plush sweet fruit, smoky savoury spice and a balsamic lift. A wine of deceptive power, with drive and vibrant energy, and a touch of salinity on the finish.
