Tasting Notes
A very structured style with plum, earth, spice and a brooding, ‘sauvage’-like nose. Excellent detail, ample and a slightly tannic with black cherry fruit with a touch of earth, a little minerality, and a rustic finish
Vineyard
Domaine Charleux is a family-owned winery located in the heart of Burgundy’s Cote de Nuits region. The estate has been producing exceptional wines for over five generations, and today, it is run by brothers Xavier and Jérôme Charleux. They are committed to sustainable farming practices and use traditional winemaking techniques to produce high-quality Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines that showcase the unique terroir of Burgundy.
Les Clos Roussots is one of the finest vineyards in Maranges, sloping and accessing maximum sunlight. Maurice sources from the middle of the slope, where the original and most sought-after vines are located. The extra sunlight allows the grapes to ripen a little more, add more tannin and structure, and age longer in the cellar. You can expect some fruity notes on the nose and palate, but the terroir is what makes the wine truly unique
