Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2017

Our Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2017 is a vibrant, full-bodied white wine. The nose reveals intense aromas of peaches, pears, vanilla, and cream, lined with notes of hazelnuts, toast and wet stones. On the palate, the same flavors are expressed, concentrated and multi-layered yet elegant and well defined. The finish is long and oaky, with a lingering minerality expressive of this unique terroir.

The limestone-rich marly soils at the intersection of Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits, on the steep slopes of the Hill of Corton, lies Corton-Charlemagne the perfect terroir for elegant Chardonnay with a long finish. Proclaimed Grand Cru in 1937, the vineyard of Corton-Charlemagne covers the villages of Aloxe-Corton, Pernand- Vergelesses, and Ladoix-Serrigny.
