    Information
    About the producer

    The history of this family business, steeped in tradition and innovation, began when Charles Antonin joined his father, Maurice, owner of a major Burgundy wine distribution company. In 1986, at the young age of 25, his love for the region’s terroir led him to set up his own company to distribute and age the finest Burgundy wines. Encouraged by his success and soon joined by his brother Daniel, Charles acquired his first plots of vines in Gevrey Chambertin and Pommard Créant. Over the years, as they developed friendly relations with their winegrowing partners, they decided to extend their range by acquiring Premier and Grand Crus from some of the region’s finest appellations. Charles and Daniel have chosen not to export their wines, reserving their finest cuvées for their loyal clientele, capturing the essence of the region they love so much.

    About the wine

    With vines in some of Burgundy’s finest Premier and Grand Cru appellations, Charles Antonin is presenting this red Clos-de-la-Roche Grand Cru made from Pinot Noir, the region’s noble grape variety. Benefiting from an oceanic climate with a semi-continental influence, the vines draws the nutrients they need to flourish from soils consisting of limestone and marl. Aged in oak, this wine offers excellent ageing potential, thanks in particular to the identity of its terroir. Tasting reveals a wine of character, with an intensely coloured ruby robe. The rich, complex bouquet reveals notes of red fruits such as strawberry and cherry, flowers reminiscent of violets, undergrowth and humus. The tannins are well structured and pronounced, becoming more refined after a few years’ cellaring. A fine acidity enlivens the whole, guaranteeing good ageing potential. This wine deserves to be paired with characterful dishes such as game or meat confit.
