Le Corton Grand Cru 2021 - Domaine Bouchard Père et Fils

Wine Bouchard Père & Fils - Hailing from the legendary Corton hill, the 2021 Corton Grand Cru from Domaine Bouchard Père & Fils perfectly expresses the grandeur of this exceptional terroir. Nestled on ideally exposed slopes between Aloxe-Corton and Pernand-Vergelesses, the plots rest on clay-limestone soils that give rise to deep, distinguished wines. The estate’s signature, built on centuries of expertise, is evident at every stage of production: meticulous care of the vines, precise selection of the grapes and delicate ageing, designed to reveal the very essence of Pinot Noir without ever constraining it. The nuanced 2021 vintage offers a wine that is both structured and elegant. The nose opens with notes of black fruit, violet and subtle spicy hints, whilst the palate reveals a silky texture, underpinned by a subtle freshness. The whole forms a delicate harmony, where power and elegance complement each other naturally. A great Burgundy wine, both rooted in its terroir and destined for the long term, which will slowly come into its own in the cellar.
