2021 Domaine Charles Audoin Bourgogne Rouge

Domaine Charles Audoin was formed in 1972 by Charles and his oenologist wife Marie-Francoise, starting with three hectares in Marsannay. Their holding has now grown to around 14 hectares that captures some of the best parcels in Marsannay. Their son Cyril joined his father in 2000, and is now in charge of both vineyard and winemaking activities for the Domaine. Cyril is increasingly focused on vineyard health, to deliver wines with pure varietal expression and a sense of place. They are among the most serious wines from the area, and while juicy and approachable young, have the capacity to age gracefully for many years.

Other Reviews....
Such fragrant red berry fruit leaping out of the nose, with strawberries and fresh raspberries mingling with cinnamon stick and flowers, Bright, fruity and well-framed, with a medium body and delicious finish. Long, too. Hard to resist. Fruit from 40-year-old vines from Marsannay. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.
