Tasting Notes
The Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Les Sorbets from Charles Van Canneyt shows a clear ruby-red color with purple highlights. Aromas of ripe cherry, raspberry, and cranberry are lifted by delicate floral notes and subtle spice. On the palate, it begins with a smooth attack, followed by lively acidity and elegant structure, supported by fine tannins. Earthy minerality and gentle oak aging add depth, while the finish is persistent and balanced. The wine is approachable after light decanting but gains complexity with age, with peak drinking expected between 2030 and 2040.
About Winery
Charles Van Canneyt is the grandson of Alain Hudelot-Noëllat, one of Burgundy’s most respected winemakers. In 2008, Charles took over Domaine Hudelot-Noëllat, continuing its tradition of terroir-driven Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny and Vosne-Romanée. In 2012, he launched his own micro-négociant label, sourcing grapes from prestigious growers across the Côte de Nuits, including Grand Crus like Chambertin, Charmes-Chambertin, and Echezeaux. His philosophy emphasizes minimal intervention, gentle extraction, and careful oak use (about 20–25% new barrels), resulting in wines of purity, finesse, and longevity. Today, Van Canneyt is considered part of Burgundy’s “nouvelle vogue” of négociants, producing small quantities of highly sought-after wines that rival established domaines.
