✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted by the modern Burgundy master Philippe Charlopin, this Bourgogne Rouge represents an accessible yet deeply expressive introduction to the estate's signature style. Heavily influenced by the legendary Henri Jayer, Charlopin brings a luscious, fruit-forward intensity to this regional appellation, sourcing Pinot Noir from carefully tended parcels across the Côte de Nuits. The winemaking process incorporates total destemming and a signature pre-fermentation cold maceration to extract vibrant color and pure berry aromas without harsh tannins. Unlike many regional Burgundy reds, this cuvée benefits from aging in a portion of French oak barrels, imparting a subtle spice, velvety texture, and a refined structure that punches far above its weight class.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1977 by Philippe Charlopin with only 1.5 hectares of family vineyards, Domaine Philippe Charlopin-Parizot is based in the village of Brochon within Burgundy's prestigious Côte de Nuits. Deeply influenced by his mentor, the legendary Henri Jayer, Charlopin embraced meticulous vineyard management, low yields, full destemming, and careful oak aging to craft wines of remarkable depth and purity. Over the decades, the estate has expanded to cover premier parcels across the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, and Chablis, now managed alongside his son Yann. The domaine is celebrated for its opulent, supple, and terroir-expressive Pinot Noirs—including coveted Grand Crus like Bonnes-Mares and Chambertin—alongside finely balanced, mineral-driven Chardonnays.
