Vintage Character Domaine Philippe Charlopin‑Parizot Marsannay 2022 is a supple and fruit‑driven Pinot Noir that highlights the freshness and charm of Burgundy’s northern Côte de Nuits. The 2022 vintage was warm yet balanced, with abundant sunshine tempered by cooler nights and timely rains, producing reds of ripeness, vibrancy, and supple tannins.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing This cuvée opens with aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry, accented by floral notes, spice, and a touch of earthiness. On the palate, it is medium‑bodied and silky, with lively acidity, fine tannins, and a mineral backbone that carries through to a long, elegant finish. Its balance of fruit purity and freshness makes it a versatile partner for roast duck with orange glaze, mushroom risotto, or a goat cheese tart, where the wine’s layered character complements both savory and delicate 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 mentored by the legendary Henri Jayer, is known for producing wines that combine Burgundian terroir transparency with a fuller, more modern style. The domaine farms prestigious parcels including Chambertin, Clos Saint‑Denis, Bonnes‑Mares, and Corton‑Charlemagne, while also crafting expressive village and regional wines such as Marsannay. The estate’s philosophy emphasizes ripe fruit, careful vineyard management, and minimal intervention in the cellar, resulting in wines that are approachable yet capable of aging, with a distinctive signature of richness balanced by elegance.
