The CHARLOPIN CHARMES CHAMBERTIN RED from Domaine Philippe Charlopin-Parizot is a benchmark for luxury Pinot Noir.

It’s a showcase of the Côte de Nuits’ ability to produce wines of immense depth and finesse.

Tasting Notes & Cellaring Advice

• Color: A deep, vibrant ruby, maturing to a rich garnet hue.
• Nose: An intoxicating aromatic complexity featuring layers of ripe red and black fruits (cherry, plum, cassis), intertwined with delicate floral notes (violet) and a distinct earthiness. Subtle oak aging introduces sophisticated hints of mocha, cedar, and exotic spice.
• Palate: Full-bodied and concentrated, the palate is defined by an incredibly silky texture. The tannins are firm yet polished, providing an elegant structure that supports the dense fruit core. The finish is exceptionally long, pure, and refined.
• Cellar Potential: Built to age, this wine requires time to fully integrate its complexities. Expect peak drinking from 8-10 years and beyond, with a potential to cellar for 20+ years in prime vintages.

Food Pairing & Service

Decant and serve slightly cool (60°F-64°F or 16°C-18°C) to unlock its full potential. This Grand Cru is a magnificent pairing for:

• Beef Wellington or Prime Rib.
• Roasted Duck Breast (Magret de Canard).
• Truffle-infused dishes.
