In the heart of the Hautes Côtes de Beaune appellation, Charles Père et Fille is a family-owned and operated estate based in Nantoux. A multi-generational domaine that gained momentum in the 1960s with the purchase of new vineyards and that start of bottle sales in France. In the 1980s, François’s son Pascal Charles joined the estate team. Together, they expanded the estate, planting new vines and replanting vineyards. Today Pascal and his daughter Pauline manage the domaine, which now covers 14 hectares under various appellations. Following traditional methods, they harvest all grapes by hand, de-stem and leave in whole clusters for vinification.
The Estate works with environmentally-friendly pest management methods and controlled yields. Treatments are applied sparingly that best respects the local biodiversity and the vines. The overall objective for Pascal and Pauline is to preserve the individual terroirs in each vineyard and to have the best expression vintage after vintage.

Intense was the first word that came to mind. Purely focused tannin weaves its way through the core of this wine. Has a savory characteristic that we have found in past vintages (2014 to be specific) with a slight licorice note on the exceptionally long finish. While this vineyard has been described as “feminine” in the past, that is certainly not the case for this bigger, bolder vintage!
