Corton Grand Cru 2024
Trade Tools
France / Burgundy
This rare wine is the product of two small parcels named Les Chaumes and La Voierose, which combined comprise less than half an acre. These are located on the lower slopes of the Corton hill, below Les Pougets and oriented directly South. Soils here are red with clay and small stones. These vines typically produce abundant and ripe grapes with the potential for full-bodied and powerful wines.
Harvest Note
The 2024 vintage was challenging and ultimately saw severely reduced yields due to excessive rainfall with warm temperatures, leading to poor flowering and uneven fruit set and pressure from downy mildew. Low lying parcels suffered the most. Harvest began on September 13th and the yields, while small, arrived in good condition.
Tasting Note
Corton red wines are typically full-bodied with firm structure, dark berry fruit with earth nuances, and savory tannins. These are wines which reward patience, as the initial austerity is refined with time.
