Description
Drawn from one of the appellation’s most prized, southeast-facing climats, known for its shallow soils and natural authority, this grand cru opens with an expressive bouquet of red and dark berries, lifted floral notes and subtle spice. On the palate it is focused and layered, combining energy and definition with the underlying structure expected of top Corton. Girardin’s organic viticulture, whole-cluster fermentation and restrained élevage prioritise transparency and freshness, allowing site character to speak clearly. Critics consistently highlight the clarity and finesse achieved here, noting how the wine balances concentration with poise rather than weight. This is a serious Grand Cru that already shows composure but is built to evolve gracefully. Drink from 2028 to 2042.
