The wine region of Corton Grand Cru
Largest Grand Cru of Burgundy on the mythic Montagne de Corton: signature Pinot Noir as red king (~75% min, often 100%) — deep robe with powerful notes of black cherry, blackcurrant, blackberry, violet, leather, undergrowth and spice, firm tannins and ample signature structure, ageing 15-30 years on velvety truffle. Rare Chardonnay in support (Charlemagne, favoured by the Emperor). Unique Grand Cru with Musigny in red and white. AOC, 90 ha of Pinot, marly limestone on slopes.
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: INAO glass
Glass adapted to wine tasting, created in the 1970s by the Institut national des appellations d'origine. At the time, it had the advantage of offering a standardised tool to all tasters. It is characterized by a wide base that allows for good ventilation and a narrow mouth (opening of the glass) to concentrate the aromas. Many high-performance glasses have been created based on this model.
