I had a great feeling when I visited Domaine Hudelot-Noëllat to taste the 2023 vintage – a feeling of energy and stronger vin d’émotion presence in the wines presented.
Charles Van Canneyt has upped his game in recent years, from small steps to big leaps forward in 2023 …
Domaine des Chézeaux
Charles Van Canneyt has expanded his personal holdings with holdings from the Mercier Estate in Gevrey-Chambertin – an owner of both fine Gevrey vineyards and other spectacular plots.
Taking over vineyards that were rented out – as the Mercier vineyards were for decades – is a time-consuming process, and will take sustained effort. The vineyards are, however, great and exciting, Historic changes are occurring!

But somehow, the 2023s are a giant leap forward in quality. The phenolics in 2023 are very well-judged in general, though some wines really shine. Let’s get to it.
The 2023s at Domaine Hudelot-Noëllat – tasted January 15th 2025

Some of the lesser wines were sadly not tasted, as they were prepared for botteling.
