A Jewel of the Côte de Nuits: Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru

Sourced from the hallowed grounds of the Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, the CHARLOPIN CHARMES CHAMBERTIN RED from Domaine Philippe Charlopin-Parizot stands as a testament to world-class Pinot Noir. This wine offers the rare combination of seductive charm and profound complexity, a true icon of Burgundy's elite.

Sommelier’s Tasting Profile

• Appearance: Fairly intense ruby colour, with a youthful brilliance and concentration.
• Aroma: The bouquet is captivating, showcasing pure red berry fruit (strawberry, cherry) and blackcurrant, evolving into sophisticated secondary notes of undergrowth, peony, and a touch of vanilla from well-managed oak.
• Taste: Exhibits a luxurious, silky texture with elegant, well-integrated tannins. The palate is concentrated and harmonious, reflecting the deep, stony, iron-rich Gevrey-Chambertin soil. It's a powerful wine that retains a remarkable sense of finesse and a lingering, memorable finish.
• Serving Suggestion: Allow to breathe for at least an hour before serving at 16°C-18°C (60°F-64°F).

Recommended Pairings

This Grand Cru demands a dish of equal stature. It is sublime with traditional British luxury fare:

• Classic Sunday Roast Lamb with rosemary and garlic.
• Game Pie (venison or pheasant).
• Mature, hard cheeses such as an aged Cheddar or a creamy Stilton.
