Product notes
Charmes‑Chambertin delivers aristocratic intensity without compromising finesse. It balances power and grace, ideal with game or fine red meats, and is built for aging—best enjoyed between 2025 and 2045 depending on vintage
Production notes
Crafted from two parcels in Charmes and Mazoyères with average vine age of 75 years, the Pinot Noir is fully de-stemmed and fermented conventionally with punch-downs, then aged for 18 months in 100% new oak to build structure and depth
Tasting notes
This wine shows deep ruby colour with an elegant, complex nose of macerated black cherry, blackberry, blueberry, forest floor, spice, smoke, and evident oak. The palate is medium to full-bodied, supported by firm yet silky tannins, and closes with a focused, saline-mineral finish.
