"Apple blossom, honeysuckle, white peach, lime, toasted nuts, and crushed stone all seem to rise from the glass. A tender, soothing texture and continued abundance of floral perfume, put fruits, citrus, and minerals greets the palate, and the long finish manages to remain refreshing and full of lift – not to mention open and accessible – yet deeply layered, the stony mineral elements uniting with a mysteriously sweet and saline savor."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Corton is the Cote de Beaune's principal red Grand Cru, spanning the Corton hill across Aloxe-Corton and neighbors, producing powerful, tannic and structured Pinot Noir reds needing time to soften and unfold.
