Features of the 2018 Vintage

2018 was a warm and sunny year in Burgundy, which brought perfect ripeness and healthy grapes. This translates into a powerful and concentrated wine with rich, ripe fruit aromas. The 2018 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru has aromas of dark fruits, such as black cherries and plums, along with hints of spice, earthy accents, and subtle floral scents.

Flavor profile

The wine has a rich, full flavour with well-integrated tannins and a lively acidity that provides balance and elegance. The mouthfeel is silky and full, while the finish is long and complex with hints of spice, mineral notes, and a touch of oak. The powerful structure and depth allow this wine to age well and become even more complex with age.

Storage potential

The 2018 René Bouvier Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is a wine with great ageing potential. It is expected to only gain in refinement and depth over the next 10 to 20 years, developing more and more tertiary aromas such as truffle, leather, and forest floor.

This Grand Cru wine is a wonderful choice for lovers of elegant, complex Burgundian Pinot Noir and can be paired beautifully with refined dishes such as roast poultry, lamb, or game.
