Domaine Ponsot Corton Grand Cru Cuvee du Bourdon 2018 750mL
At the tip of the revered Cote de Beaune, one will find the majestic Hill of Corton. Since the 8th century, the vines have flourished along the natural amphitheater on the hill's south side, producing the largest grand cru in all of Burgundy. Emperor Charlemagne praised this region centuries ago for its exceptional high-quality wines, solidifying its prestigious reputation.
Domaine Ponsot proudly embraces its "unfashionable" approach, remaining steadfast in their commitment to the land, tradition, and intention. They shun trends in farming and production, never using new oak barrels for the two-year elevage and strictly limiting the use of sulfur. Instead, they meticulously top their barrels, ensuring utmost freshness and minimizing any risk of spoilage. This wine is a testament to the precision and passion of Domaine Ponsot, sourced from some of the finest pinot noir plots in the world.
