- Charmes is derived from 'chaume', meaning stubble or thatch, indicating its origins as a grain field. It is powerful and perfumed, with an intensely aromatic bouquet reminiscent of blackcurrants.
Gevrey Chambertin is the northernmost of the great communes of the Cote de Nuits. There are 26 Premiers Crus and 8 Grands Crus. Half of the Premiers Crus of Gevrey lie on the Grands Cru's east-facing slope; the other half occupies a steep, southeast-facing slope to the north, with calcareous clay soils. Charmes Chambertin vineyard is situated on the east-facing slope between Mazoyeres Chambertin Grand Cru, Latricieres Chambertin, and Chambertin Grand Cru. Charmes is derived from Chaume, meaning subtle or thatch, indicating the former presence of a grain field. The grapes bear small dark red berries. The bunches are destemmed; they macerate in open vats for 4 weeks, helping this subtle terroir to reveal itself. After devatting, the wines are aged in oak barrels for 18 months.
