FEATURES
🏰 The 2021 vintage in Burgundy was challenging, resulting in one of the smallest harvests the region has seen, yet it produced harmonious and elegant reds with lower alcohol concentrations compared to previous vintages. It's considered a vintage with a rather Burgundian style, showcasing fruitiness and freshness. Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru is renowned for its vivid coloration, ranging from deep ruby to black-cherry, and its complex, subtle aromas. The nose often suggests strawberry, blackcurrant, gooseberry, fruit pits, liquorice, and spices, with hints of violet, moss, and underbrush. For the 2021 Charles Van Canneyt Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru, the nose is inevitably full of sweet, bright, fresh cherry fruit, joined by layers of wild strawberry and raspberry, with peony perfume and savory, smoky complexity. The palate offers a creamy mouthful – rich and long, an impressively rich wine with silken tannins. When the wine matures, hints of truffle and venison can emerge. 【One of the most subtle and elegant Grand Crus in 布根地】.
🍴 Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru, with its powerful, opulent, and elegant profile, demands equally complex, high-toned dishes. Excellent pairings include feathered game (grilled or in wine sauce), roast lamb in gravy, chicken in red wine sauce, glazed poultry, or rib steak. Soft-centered cheeses will also find strong support from the wine's power and aromatic persistence.
🥂 This Grand Cru has a keeping potential of at least 10 years. The 2021 vintage, with its freshness and fruitiness, is a beautiful expression of Griotte-Chambertin, suitable for special occasions or as a prized addition to a 布根地 collection. Serving temperatures: 12 to 14°C for young wines, 14 to 16°C for older wines.
