Vintage Character Domaine Philippe Charlopin‑Parizot Gevrey‑Chambertin Vieilles Vignes 2018 is a concentrated and powerful Pinot Noir that reflects the richness of the hot, dry 2018 Burgundy vintage.
The 2018 season in Burgundy was widely regarded as excellent, producing wines of ripe, generous fruit, depth, and longevity. This Vieilles Vignes cuvée reveals aromas of black cherry, plum, and raspberry, layered with violets, licorice, and earthy spice.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing On the palate, it is full‑bodied and velvety, with ripe tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, mineral‑driven finish. Its structure and intensity make it a superb partner for braised beef cheeks, roast lamb with rosemary, or Cantonese soy‑braised duck, where the wine’s richness and freshness complement bold flavors.
Winery Background Founded in 1977, Domaine Philippe Charlopin‑Parizot has grown from just 1.5 hectares to more than 25 hectares across the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, and Chablis. Philippe Charlopin, once a protégé of the legendary Henri Jayer, is recognized for producing wines that combine Burgundian terroir transparency with a fuller, more modern style. The domaine farms prestigious parcels including Chambertin, Clos Saint‑Denis, and Gevrey‑Chambertin, with a philosophy that emphasizes ripe fruit, silky tannins, and accessibility without sacrificing depth. Today, the estate is regarded as a producer of both power and elegance, offering a distinctive interpretation of Burgundy’s greatest vineyards and appealing to collectors and enthusiasts alike.
