Presentation
Located in Côte de Nuits, the Domaine Chopin Et Fils is a family exploitation that perpetuates Burgundian excellence through several generations. The domain strives to produce authentic wines, respecting the typicity of the terroirs of Comblanchien, Nuits-Saint-Georges, and Chambolle-Musigny. The vines are worked in sustainable viticulture, with soil plowing favoring deep rooting and pure expression of Pinot Noir. Vinification is done in open tanks with gentle extractions, and aging in oak barrels, with a measured proportion of new wood, brings complexity and finesse to the wines. The reds of the domain stand out for their elegance and structure, offering aromas of black fruits, spices, and beautiful length in the mouth. A domain to follow for lovers of racy and aging wines.

On the palate, this wine offers a fine texture, with silky tannins and lively tension that give it pleasant freshness. Flavors of black cherry and spice blend harmoniously, supported by well-integrated acidity. The finish is long, balanced, and marked by beautiful aromatic persistence.
