Vintage Character The 2021 Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru from Domaine Faiveley is a compelling showcase of this esteemed Burgundy terroir, shaped by a vintage that challenged growers with spring frosts and a cool, unsettled growing season. These conditions led to reduced yields but fostered wines of notable purity, freshness, and classical restraint, making 2021 a year prized for its transparency and finesse.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Awarded 93 points by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, this Grand Cru reveals an expressive bouquet of wild raspberry, black cherry, and violet, accented by subtle mineral and earthy nuances. The palate is refined and energetic, with silky tannins supporting layers of red fruit, spice, and forest floor, culminating in a long, elegant finish. Its vibrant structure and aromatic complexity make it an excellent match for roast duck with cherry sauce or the traditional coq au vin, while a creamy Brie de Meaux highlights its supple texture and depth.
