very compact

The 2012 is neither the biggest nor most complex Pichon Lalande

There is very good size and weight

Maison Joseph Faiveley, Chambolle Musigny Beaux Bruns other_regions very compactMild reduction is enough to render the nose difficult to read. By contrast there is both good freshness and vibrancy to the sleek and focused middle weight flavors that possess good mid palate concentration, all wrapped in a firm, serious and mildly austere finale. As is usually the case with Beaux Bruns this is not an elegant Chambolle but rather one of muscle and punch. (89 92) 2024+
