Traditional Burgundian vinification took place with minimal intervention. The grapes were vinified as whole clusters. Fermentation took place with natural yeasts and without any ‘pigeage’ or punching down of the cap. The wine was 100% barrel aged for 12 months, in a combination of oak barrels. One third was aged in new oak, one third in second passage oak and one third in third passage oak. The wine then rested for a further six months in tank, prior to being bottled, without fining or filtration.
Les Charmes is a smooth and complex wine showing generous aromas of cherries and strawberries, with hints of violets. Classic, silky and elegant with fine integrated tannins and a long finish.

| Winery | Santenay is a village located at the southern end of the Cote de Beaune, south of Chassagne-Montrachet. The vineyard of Les Charmes is situated at the foothill of Santenay, with a clayey limestone soil, which is rich in iron, on a limestone base. The 0.3 hectares of vineyard are planted with very fine clones of Pinot Noir vines, which produce rich and powerful wines. The vineyard is managed with respect for the unique attributes of each site's terroir and is farmed sustainably and organically, although it is not certified. Some biodynamic philosophies are also followed, such as biodynamic sprays. The grapes are hand-picked and carefully sorted. |
