Description
A highly expressive Grand Cru from Burgundy's iconic Corton region. A favourite wine site of Emperor Charlemagne, Corton boasts the only red grand cru of the Cote de Beaune. The nose shows great complexity and bright aromas of violets, spice, cherries, blackberries and forest floor. The palate is intensely concentrated with great acidity and bold tannins, managing to be simultaneously well structured and sensual. This wine offers a real presence, a beautiful intensity while retaining its finesse and elegance, promising further notes of truffles and leather as it ages.
