Discover the grape variety: Pinot noir

Elegant reds, light in colour with silky tannins, showing strawberry, cherry and raspberry aromas, evolving to forest floor, mushroom and spice with age. Fresh acidity, delicate finish. Star of the Côte d'Or (Romanée-Conti, Chambertin, Volnay), pillar of Champagne (Blanc de Noirs) and signature of Oregon, Central Otago and Sonoma Coast. An early-ripening Burgundian variety, one of the world's greatest.

The wine region of Corton Grand Cru 'Les Renardes'

Grand Cru climat of 14. 35 ha on the Corton hill (Aloxe-Corton) in the Côte de Beaune, 100% Pinot Noir: one of the most structured and powerful Corton reds. Deep ruby robe, signature animal and spiced nose — leather, game, undergrowth, black cherry and blackberry, faded rose at maturity. Iron-oxide-rich red clay-ferrous soils, mid-slope southeast exposure.


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: Sulphating

Treatment, formerly practiced with copper sulfate, applied to the vine to prevent cryptogamic diseases.
