By clearly distinguishing Charmes from nearby Mazoyères-Chambertin, the producer emphasizes the parcel’s own identity: ripe fruit, elegant structure, and the layered complexity that has made this Grand Cru so highly regarded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMakuprofiili\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, this 2019 Charmes-Chambertin shows the depth and concentration you would expect from a Grand Cru of this calibre, with a vivid core of dark and red fruit. Aromas of cherry, black cherry, blackberry, and wild berries are joined by hints of strawberry, spice, cocoa, liquorice, dried herbs, and a subtle smoky, toasted edge from oak and whole-cluster influence.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is generous and full-bodied, with a warm, almost succulent fruit profile balanced by fresh acidity and finely textured tannins. Notes of dark chocolate, cocoa nib, earthy nuances, and a touch of mineral tension carry through to a long, persistent finish. While already impressive, this wine has the structure and depth to evolve beautifully over the next 10–15 years, gaining even greater nuance and finesse with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCharmes-Chambertin comes from a prized Grand Cru slope in Burgundy, where limestone and clay soils, cooler nights, and well-exposed parcels help preserve aromatic freshness while allowing optimal ripeness. For the 2019 vintage, the grapes were harvested by hand and carefully sorted, with fruit drawn from several parcels and vine ages, including some very old vines, to build complexity and layered character. Fermentation took place with native yeasts, and a proportion of whole clusters was used to add aromatic lift, subtle stem spice, and a lightly smoky dimension. The wine was then matured in French oak barrels, including a share of new oak, to lend structure, spice, and gentle toast while preserving the purity of the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuoka \u0026amp; tarjoilu\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Grand Cru pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as roast duck, game bird, veal, mushroom risotto, truffle pasta, or lamb with herbs. Serve at around 16–18°C to allow the aromatics and texture to unfold fully. Decanting for 1–2 hours is recommended if opening young, as it will help the wine open up and show its full aromatic breadth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuottaja\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHenri Richard is known for producing terroir-driven Burgundy wines with a strong emphasis on parcel expression and traditional craftsmanship.
