Description
The Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru from the Alvina Pernot estate comes from one of Burgundy's most prestigious terroirs, renowned for producing white wines with great ageing potential. The poor, chalky soils of the Corton hill give the Chardonnay a powerful structure, marked tension and remarkable ageing potential.
The grapes are harvested by hand and then gently pressed to preserve the purity of the juice and limit oxidation. Vinification is carried out with great precision, favouring natural fermentation and minimal intervention. Ageing in oak barrels is perfectly controlled, allowing the wine to gain complexity without masking the expression of the terroir.
On tasting, Corton-Charlemagne reveals an intense bouquet combining white fruits, citrus zest, floral notes and mineral nuances. The palate is full-bodied, structured and taut, carried by a persistent, salty finish. This grand cru from the Alvina Pernot estate is aimed at lovers of great Burgundy Chardonnays, capable of evolving magnificently over time.
