The wine region of Corton Grand Cru 'Les Perrières'
Grand Cru climat at the north of Aloxe-Corton on the lower south-facing slopes of the Corton hill at 270 m: 100% Pinot Noir with a mineral, direct profile, often austere in youth but ageing gracefully. Fine, firm and tight tannins. Ruby colour, stony nose and precise dark fruits. Brown and red fairly deep clay soils scattered with rounded pink pebbles — an ancient quarry revealed by the name "perrière" denoting an exceptionally stony site.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Alcooleux
Said of a wine dominated by the presence of alcohol.
