Domaine HuguenotCharmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 2021

About this wine

This Grand Cru from Domaine Huguenot represents one of Burgundy's most prestigious climats, where Pinot Noir reaches its ultimate expression on the legendary slopes of Gevrey-Chambertin. The 2021 vintage delivers the perfect balance between power and elegance that makes this appellation so coveted by wine lovers worldwide.

On the nose, you'll find layers of ripe red cherries and wild strawberries, intertwined with subtle notes of violet, earthy forest floor, and a hint of sweet spice. The palate is silky yet structured, with refined tannins that carry flavors of black cherry, cranberry, and a touch of dark chocolate through to a long, mineral-driven finish. This is Pinot Noir at its finest, showing both intensity and remarkable finesse.

Decant this beauty for at least an hour before serving at 16-18°C to let it fully open up. It's the perfect companion for roasted duck breast with cherry sauce, beef Wellington, or a selection of aged French cheeses like Époisses or Comté. This wine has excellent aging potential and will continue to evolve beautifully over the next 10 to 15 years in your cellar.
