One of Burgundy's Grands Crus
Visit Corton-Charlemagne is a Grand Cru appellation of the Côte de BeauneCôtes-d'Or, dating from 1937. The appellation may be followed by the name of the climate from which the wine comes: Le Charlemagne, En Charlemagne, Pougets, Corton and Languettes. Les Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru are located in the communes of Aloxe-Corton, Ladoix-Serigny and Pernand-Vergelesses.The elegance and finesse of Corton-Charlemagne
Visit Corton-Charlemagne is a dry, non-sparkling white wine. It is a wine for laying down, revealing its richness after around ten years. However, it can be cellared for 25 to 30 years. It has specific characteristics. First of all, its color is pale gold with green highlights. As it ages, it evolves towards amber. Then, on the nose, this great wine seduces with its various fruity and floral aromas, including notes of baked apple, lime blossom, fern and cinnamon. Finally, the round, long finish is exceptional. Domaine Corton-Charlemagne's wine is harmonious, delicate and elegant.The right terroir for Charlemagne Burgundy
South-facing, the vineyard enjoys perfect exposure on the slopes of the Montagne de Corton. The vineyard occupies the top of the mountain at an altitude of between 280 and 330 m, ensuring adequate sunshine. It extends over 52 hectares on steep slopes (20 to 23%). Chardonnay is planted on limestone soils rich in marl and clay. These geological and climatic conditions contribute to Chardonnay's exceptional personality.

"Aromas of citrus zest, freshly baked bread, beeswax, buttered popcorn and vanilla bean introduce the 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot), a full-bodied, satiny, layered wine that is rich and muscular, with a concentrated, structured core of fruit belted by racy acids and chalky dry extract. Long and resonant, it will reward patience." (Wine Advocate 2022) - Delivery in wooden case possible for orders of 6 bottles of this wine (depending on country and shipping method selected)

"An ample, very dense white, tightly structured and complex. Lots of baked apples, lemons and white pineapple with mineral and stone nuances. Compact and tight. Solid and powerful. It will take three or four years to open up, but it's already fantastic. It will be even better after 2023.

"It has aromas of anise, dried lemon, white grapefruit, gunflint and even smoked meat, with dried mango and a bit of green tea. Sophisticated nonetheless, rather than generous, with tight, firm layers. Full body. Tight, mineral finish. Drink from 2025. (James Suckling 2023)

Medium- to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, it's muscular and structured, with racy acids and fine reserves of dry extract. This should age with class."

"The 2017 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru shows beautifully, unfolding in the glass with scents of citrus oil, yellow pear, fresh bread and custard. Medium-dense to dense, it's elegantly textured, precise and fine-boned, with sly depth and persistence despite its understated profile. It's very well made." (Wine Advocate 2020)
