Domaine Clos de la Chapelle Beaune 1er Cru Champs Pimont 2023 is an elegant and beautifully structured Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy's distinguished Premier Cru vineyards. Located west of Beaune, the Champs Pimont vineyard features iron-rich clay soils and mature vines that contribute depth, complexity, and distinctive mineral character.
The vineyard's central position within Beaune produces a harmonious balance between the fruit-forward character of northern Beaune and the firmer structure of its southern vineyards.
The 2023 vintage reveals expressive aromas of ripe cherries, blackberries, raspberries, and subtle floral notes, complemented by smoky oak, wild herbs, and hints of menthol. On the palate, the wine is vibrant and beautifully balanced, offering concentrated fruit, refined tannins, refreshing acidity, and an elegant mineral backbone. The finish is long and complex, with lingering notes of dark fruit, spice, and earth.
A sophisticated Premier Cru Burgundy with excellent aging potential, this wine pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, duck, pork, veal, and mushroom-based dishes.
Expert Review
95 Points Wine Spectator: Showing oak spice notes, this red is smoky in style, with cherry, blackberry, mineral and green olive, plus hints of wild herbs and menthol. Displays excellent depth, harmony and structure, with a long, complex aftertaste that echoes the fruit, mineral and spice elements.
