The first evidence of vineyards in the commune of Aloxe-Corton date back to the 2nd century BC. Later, Corton would become Charlemagne’s favourite wine. In the 19th century, French writer Guy de Maupassant, referenced his hedonistic lifestyle, calling him the roi des bons vivants (king of those who enjoy life) contributing to developing his reputation. The only red Grand Cru in the Côte de Beaune, Corton is also the only Grand Cru in the Côte d’Or to be divided into sub-climats. Le Corton designates the historic plot that gave its name to the corton appellation. Bouchard Père & Fils own 60% of the climate of Le Corton, a unique feature of which is that it can be planted with either Pinot Noir or Chardonnay.
Tasting Notes: Opulent bouquet combining notes of red and black fruits and spices with hints of smoke. Full-bodied and rich, it expresses itself with distinction. A great, racy wine with excellent ageing potential.
Variety: Pinot Noir / Origin: Burgundy France
