2015 Domaine Bernard Moreau Chassagne-Montrachet Vieille Vignes ROUGE

The 2015 Chassagne Montrachet Vieilles Vignes Rouge, aged in 10% new oak, offers mulberry and raspberry preserve scents on the nose, a light floral scent that should develop once in bottle. The palate is medium-bodied with a gentle grip in the mouth, a little sinew here perhaps in lieu of finesse, although there is good density and length on the broody finish. It just needs to brighten up a little.
