With its lemon hue, our Ladoix Premier Cru "Les Gréchons" 2015 reveals delightful aromas of pear, quince and lemon marmalade underscored by delicate creamy notes. The generous palate offers hints of rich butter and brioche balanced by a refreshing acidity. The lengthy finish never seems to end.

Ladoix is the northernmost vineyard in the Côte de Beaune before the Côte de Nuits begins. “Les Gréchons” is one of the highest plots on the steep sides of Corton Hill, where ancient quarries once stood. Deep sedimentary, fossil-rich soils produce an intense and mineral Chardonnay enjoyable today, but also ageable for years.
