Terroir

Situated on the hill where the Grands Crus of Corton are located. Facing due east, the vineyard overlooks the village of Ladoix-Serrigny and goes up to the edge of the forest. The vineyard is steep and very chalky, which confers an intense mineral quality.

Vinification

Whole bunches of grapes were handpicked into small crates and pressed in a pneumatic winepress. The juice was cold settled after pressing for 36 hours under temperature-controlled conditions. Alcoholic fermentation and ageing took place entirely in oak barrels. 100% malolactic fermentation. Duration of ageing : 22 months

Tasting Notes

COLOR: White gold with silvery-gray highlight. NOSE: Discreet, with finesse and elegance. Notes of aniseed and delicate chalkiness. PALATE : Tension and energy. Spicy-peppery notes (white pepper). Notes of white fruit (vine peach). Warm, sapid finish (grain of salt).
