From Domaine des Varoilles in Burgundy’s Gevrey-Chambertin, the La Romanée Monopole 2018 is a refined 100% Pinot Noir from a one-hectare vineyard with 60-year-old vines on gravel and limestone soils. Aged in French oak barrels (20% new), it offers a deep ruby hue with vibrant complexity.
Tasting Notes
An elegant, structured red with refined fruit and mineral depth, showcasing Gevrey-Chambertin’s terroir.
The nose reveals black cherry, red berry, and spice, with hints of toasty oak and flinty minerals. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and fleshy, with fine tannins, bright acidity, and flavors of dark fruit, mocha, and a long, grippy finish.
Food Pairings
Pair this red with Western dishes like roasted duck or mushroom risotto to highlight its vibrant fruit and minerality. For Chinese cuisine, try 豉汁蒸排骨, 燒鴨, 香菇燉雞, 紅燒肉, 醬爆牛柳, or 椒鹽雞翼 to complement its silky texture and savory notes. Ideal for refined dinners or casual gatherings.
Serving and Cellaring
Serve at 16°C with one hour of decanting to enhance aromas. Enjoy now or cellar until 2030 for added complexity. Explore our Burgundy collection for more Pinot Noir classics.
