Domaine Henri Rebourseau Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru 2019
Introduction
This prestigious red wine hails from France, specifically the Burgundy region within the Gevrey Chambertin village. Domaine Henri Rebourseau is an iconic estate with roots dating back to 1782, holding one of the most significant collections of Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte de Nuits. Now managed by the de Surrel family in partnership with the Bouygues family, the domaine employs organic and biodynamic farming practices to highlight the purity and individuality of their exceptional 'climat' sites.
Wine Description
The Domaine Henri Rebourseau Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru 2019 displays an intense raspberry red appearance with brilliant clarity. The nose is lush and perfumed, offering concentrated aromas of wild strawberries and jammy cherries, beautifully interwoven with vanilla spices, crushed rose petals, and violets. On the palate, the wine is sumptuous and full-bodied, exhibiting a silky, almost oily texture and a rich core of fleshy fruit. It is balanced by a firm yet fine tannic structure and a lingering, spicy finish. This wine is 100% Pinot Noir and is certified organic and biodynamic. The alcohol by volume (ABV) is 13.8% (often rounded to 14%). While approachable in its youth due to the solar nature of the vintage, it has an optimal drinking window extending up to fifteen years or more.

Food Pairing
This rich and suave Grand Cru pairs exceptionally well with sophisticated meat dishes. Suggested pairings include roast duck breast with a honey and spice glaze, prime rib with a morel cream sauce, or feathered game such as pheasant. It also complements earthy flavours like truffle-infused dishes or a selection of refined Burgundian cheeses.
Vintage Quality
The 2019 vintage in Burgundy is considered outstanding, characterized by a hot and dry summer that led to high concentration and small, thick-skinned grapes. Despite two significant heatwaves, the wines preserved excellent freshness and mineral tension, resulting in a vintage that offers a rare combination of power, aromatic intensity, and structural balance.
