Discover Charles Noëllat Estate

The Charles Noëllat Estate, once a flagship of Vosne-Romanée in the Côte de Nuits, has deeply influenced the viticultural history of Burgundy. Before its partial takeover by Domaine Leroy in the 1980s, it already produced some of the most sought-after wines in the region, embodying the elegance and nobility of Burgundy Pinot Noir.

Terroir and Characteristics

The estate's vineyards included prestigious climats such as Romanée-Saint-Vivant, Richebourg, and Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots, producing wines of rare complexity. These cuvées come from old vines rooted in clay-limestone soils, combining intensity, depth, and remarkable balance that fully express the unique terroir.

Wine Profile

Charles Noëllat wines are renowned for their finesse, elegant structure, and complex aromatic maturity. They are full-bodied red wines yet delicate, with exceptional aging potential, revealing notes of red fruits, spices, and occasionally floral hints characteristic of Vosne-Romanée Pinot Noir.

Food Pairings

These wines pair perfectly with refined dishes such as beef fillet with morels, chicken with mushroom sauce, aged Comté cheese, or soft cheeses like Époisses. Their elegance and aromatic richness make them ideal for gastronomic meals.

Your questions, our answers.

What distinguishes the two appellations in the Charles Noëllat selection?

Clos de la Roche 2019 is the only wine in this selection classified as Grand Cru. Auxey-Duresses 2017 offers the chance to discover another Burgundy appellation under the same name, but no specific classification is indicated for this bottle.

Can the 2017 and 2019 vintages be compared through these two wines?

The selection includes an Auxey-Duresses 2017 and a Clos de la Roche 2019, both red wines presented in 75 cl bottles. Tasting them allows you to compare two Charles Noëllat wines, but not to isolate the effect of vintage, since the appellations also differ.

Are the historic grand cru vineyards mentioned in the presentation of Charles Noëllat included in this selection?

No: Romanée-Saint-Vivant, Richebourg and Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Suchots are mentioned in the estate’s history, but are not among the two wines featured. The selection focuses on Clos de la Roche 2019 and Auxey-Duresses 2017.

What menu would you consider serving with Charles Noëllat’s red wines?

The estate’s presentation suggests beef fillet with morels or chicken in a mushroom sauce. For cheese, it mentions aged Comté and Époisses, without suggesting a specific pairing for either Auxey-Duresses 2017 or Clos de la Roche 2019.

What aromatic thread should you look for when tasting these two Charles Noëllat wines?

The general presentation describes red wines combining finesse, power and elegant structure, with notes of red fruit, spices and sometimes a floral touch. These are descriptors of the estate’s overall style; they are not tasting notes specific to either of the two bottles.
