Trelio with the fellas again (Clovis Ca.): Pretty Bertheau...red berry fruits, dried potpourri, crancherry tart acidity...little muddled with some tilled earth, leather from age...but still drinking well at this age, classic.

On first pour my favorite of the three older Charmes, as this showed the sweet upfront elegant red fruit character I think of in Chambolle Charmes, but with air it picked up an odd beety brown sugar note that I suspect resulted from chaptalization. Still decent, but outclassed by the 93 Barthod and not up to the level of a lovely bottle of the 1990 version of this wine I remember.
