Denis Bachelet, Charmes Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru, 2018
🏰 The 2018 vintage in Burgundy was warm and generous, producing ripe, fruit-forward wines with good concentration. Denis Bachelet's Charmes Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru 2018 is a 【powerful yet elegant expression from old vines】, offering a captivating blend of richness and finesse. Expect a vibrant nose of red and black cherries, violets, and a hint of earthy spice, with a concentrated palate, silky tannins, and a long, expressive finish. This wine has excellent aging potential.
🍴 Chinese Cantonese food pairing: This exquisite red Burgundy would be superb with a classic Crispy Skin Roast Pork Belly (脆皮燒肉), or a flavorful Braised Pigeon with Soy Sauce (豉油皇乳鴿). For Western cuisine, consider pan-seared duck breast, mushroom risotto, or a fine cut of grilled lamb.
🥂 fit for event: Ideal for a celebratory dinner, a special gathering with fellow wine enthusiasts, or as a cellar addition for future enjoyment. Serve at cellar temperature, around 16-18°C (60-64°F). Decanting for 30-60 minutes can help it open up and reveal its full aromatic complexity.
