2010 Chateau Charmail Cru Bourgeois Pre-Arrival Offer
This impressive 2010 is one of the most powerful, rich wines I have ever tasted from this over-achieving estate in the northern sector of the Medoc. A blend of 50% Merlot, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc and the rest Petit Verdot that achieved 14.2% natural alcohol (a record at this property), it boasts an inky/blue/purple color along with a sweet perfume of blueberry liqueur, acacia flowers, graphite, espresso roast and white chocolate. The complex aromatics are followed by a deep, medium to full-bodied wine with outstanding concentration and texture. It should drink well for a decade or more. Drink: 2013 - 2021
Score: 88-90
Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate # 194 May 2011
Not the 2009, but refined and well-made, with elegant tannins and good fruit.
Score: 88-89
