The Winery

Serafin & Fils

When Polish Stanilaus Serafin moved to Burgundy in the early 1900s, he never expected to operate one of the most powerful domaines in the region. His son Christian inherited the domaine in 1988 after leading the winemaking team for nearly 20 years before that. Like most of the producers in Burgundy, Serafin relies on old vines with low yields. Combined with his intense oak regime, the resulting wines are rich and concentrated and are incredible with some age. Today, the estate is run by Christian’s niece and daughter.

Tasting Notes

WA93
Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Charmes-Chambertin 2011 from Serafin has a perfumed, floral bouquet with rose petals infusing the vibrant redcurrant and cranberry scents. The palate is nicely balanced with ripe tannins and a silver thread of acidity, offering a gentle crescendo toward the structured finish that should see this Charmes-Chambertin age better than many. This is a well-crafted grand cru that needs 3 or 4 years to show its full potential.
