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.

Tasting
The nose is delicate, aromatic, and powerful. Notes of quince and flinty minerality combine with subtle hints of stone fruits. A touch of fresh citrus, floral notes, brioche, and spice also emerge. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, with a beautiful minerality.
Food pairings
Perfect with a mixed cheese platter (Beaufort, Brillat-Savarin…). A true gastronomic wine, it also pairs beautifully with white meats, fish, or seafood.
