Charles Van Canneyt is the current winemaker at the iconic Domaine Hudelot-Noellat in Vougeot, but he also produces wine under his own label. Using his extensive contacts with the finest growers in Burgundy, Charles sources grapes from some of the top plots in the area, and makes the wines at a separate facility in Beaune. Charles is aiming for a similar purity and terroir focus as those wines of Hudelot-Noellat, and as such has minimal use of new oak each year.

Other Reviews....
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a perfumed, floral bouquet of violets and lavender aromas that slightly occlude the terroir. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a structured opening, fresh and saline, displaying good depth and a crunchy, slightly austere finish. Not bad, though I prefer the Morey-Saint-Denis in terms of complexity and fruité.
