Charles Van Canneyt - Gevrey-Chambertin 2021

This Gevrey-Chambertin is all in velvet, balanced and powerfull.

Having helmed the iconic Domaine Hudelot-Noellat since 2008, Charles Van Canneyt is well known among burgundy connoisseurs. Charles is Alain Hudelot’s grandson and a very talented and skilled winemaker in his own right. Through his extensive network of Burgundy’s finest growers, Charles sources excellent grapes. By style, it’s aligned with the family wines, pure and terroir transparent.

The Gevrey-Chambertin has a delicate nose that gives way to an array of red fruits flavours, red cherry, rose petals, plum and spices.

On the palate, a great sense of finesse delivers a lovely density, silky tannin structure and a lingering finish. It can be paired with game, charcoaled beef or cow cheese. It can be decanted for 25 minutes before serving or cellared up until 2028+. 100% Pinot Noir.
