Tasting Notes

Goedhuis, August 2018
One of Chandon de Briailles’ three red Cortons, this is the lowest lying site, on iron-rich clay soils with a smattering of small stones, very like the soils found throughout much of the Côte de Nuits. It consistently produces one of the most enjoyable wines in their cellar. This 2013 has opened up like a rose: scented, complex, and inviting. It has depth and structure on the palate, and a layered dark fruit finish.

Goedhuis, December 2014
A beautifully succulent Grand cru full of volume and richness. Layered and textured with intense summer fruit flavours. A wonderfully pleasing style with a fabulously generous finish.

Sarah Marsh, November 2014,
Score: 18.5Expressive ripe red fruit; warm summer fruits; touch of strawberry. Soft on the attack; full and juicy. A broad palate; very aromatic; notes of clementine especially on the finish. The body is full, but not heavy. More airy in structure. The tannins are smooth, not too many. I like the aromatics at the end. Score 18.5

Producer
Domaine Chandon de Briailles

The sibling team at this stunning domaine (Francois and Claude de Nicolay) is most definitely a winning one. Their biggest influence has been to convert the estate firstly to organic and now to biodynamic methods of viticulture and vinification. The wines focus on sensual flavours and refinement, these are not powerful, but the aged vines allow for wines of extraordinary texture and complexity.
Region
Corton
The Grands Crus of Corton, a red made from Pinot Noir, and Corton Charlemagne, a white made from Chardonnay are shared between Aloxe-Corton, Ladoix Serrigny and Pernand Vergelesses. The vines for both are planted on the hillsides underneath the plateau of Corton's woodland forest. The majorityof Pinot Noir is planted in the southern and eastern sector where the soil is naturally rich with red iron clay giving additional body and power. Overall, the wines from these areas tend to be fruit forward and fleshy with a balance of round edges and fine concentration.
