Domaine Castagnier, run by Guy and his father-in-law Gilbert Vaday, boasts over 80 years of combined experience in vineyard management and winemaking. Their wines, known for their slow maturation and classical structure, reflect the delicate flavors of old vines and the unique terroirs of their appellations. The traditional winemaking techniques employed by these vintners create complex, tightly knit flavors that develop over many years, showcasing the distinctive qualities of Pinot Noir from the esteemed grand cru regions of the Côtes du Nuits.
The 2018 Charmes Chambertin from Domaine Castagnier is a striking ruby red, captivating with its vibrant color. The nose reveals a delightful mix of red berry aromas complemented by savory notes that add depth. On the palate, the wine offers a powerful presence with significant structure and concentration, featuring dominant flavors of red currant, cranberry, and sour cherry. The wine’s impressive qualities suggest it will continue to evolve, promising an even more refined expression of its terroir with additional aging.
