Remoissenet Père & Fils, Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, 2021

Remoissenet Père & Fils’ Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 2021 is a poised and sensual expression of Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most admired sites. Sourced from the southern part of Gevrey-Chambertin, it combines depth, perfume, and a notably supple texture, showcasing the Grand Cru’s reputation for elegance over brute force.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine shows a deep ruby color, hinting at both concentration and finesse. The nose is layered with ripe cherry, raspberry, violet, and rose petals, followed by subtle forest floor, spice, and a touch of vanilla from the oak. On the palate, it is silky and refined, yet anchored by mature tannins and fresh acidity that give the wine lift and shape. The finish is long and harmonious, with fruit, mineral tones, and delicate savory nuances unfolding over time. This is a wine built for aging, with a potential of around 15–25 years, during which it will gain even more complexity and tertiary depth.

Production
Charmes-Chambertin lies in the southern part of Gevrey-Chambertin in the Côte de Nuits, where limestone, clay, and fine gravel soils help produce wines of perfume, depth, and a more velvety structure than the firmer Grand Crus further north. Remoissenet Père & Fils works in a classic Burgundian style, with careful vineyard selection, hand harvesting, sorting, fermentation in open vats, and balanced extraction to preserve finesse. The wine is then matured in French oak barrels, including a proportion of new oak, to add structure and spice without masking the purity of the fruit.

Food & Serving
This Grand Cru is a beautiful match for duck, pigeon, beef tenderloin, veal, or game such as roe deer and pheasant. It also pairs particularly well with mushroom dishes, especially those featuring truffle or wild mushrooms, and with refined cheeses like Brie de Meaux or Époisses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decant gently if drinking young to help the wine open up.
