Vintage Character Domaine Odoul‑Coquard Charmes‑Chambertin Grand Cru 2022 is a powerful yet refined Pinot Noir, uniting the richness of the vintage with the elegance of one of Gevrey‑Chambertin’s most celebrated Grands Crus. The 2022 growing season in Burgundy was warm and generous, with a hot summer tempered by cool nights and timely rains, producing wines of ripe fruit, supple tannins, and excellent freshness. This cuvée, which also incorporates fruit from vines in Mazoyères‑Chambertin, opens with a bouquet of black cherry, cassis, and raspberry, layered with violet, rose petal, and subtle spice.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing On the palate, it is full‑bodied and concentrated, with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, mineral‑driven finish. Its depth and precision make it a superb partner for roast venison with juniper, duck breast with cherry glaze, or aged Comté cheese, delivering both immediate pleasure and the structure for long‑term cellaring.
Winery Background Domaine Odoul‑Coquard, based in Morey‑Saint‑Denis, is a family‑run estate founded in the early 20th century and now managed by Sébastien Odoul, the fourth generation. The domaine cultivates parcels across prestigious Côte de Nuits appellations, including Gevrey‑Chambertin, Chambolle‑Musigny, and Clos de Vougeot, alongside regional Bourgogne vineyards. Vineyard work is carried out with low yields and sustainable practices, while in the cellar the philosophy emphasizes purity of fruit and terroir expression through gentle extraction and judicious oak use (never more than 50% new barrels). The Charmes‑Chambertin Grand Cru is the jewel of the estate’s holdings, crafted with the same precision as their other crus but offering the grandeur, complexity, and longevity expected of a Grand Cru. The 2022 vintage underscores the domaine’s ability to balance power with finesse, producing a wine that will reward both early enjoyment and extended aging.
