Vincent Girardin's Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is a wine that truly embodies the essence of Burgundy. This wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Corton-Charlemagne vineyard, which is located in the Côte de Beaune region of Burgundy.

The taste profile of this wine is complex and layered, with notes of citrus, apple, and pear, as well as hints of vanilla and oak. The wine has a rich, full-bodied texture and a long, lingering finish that leaves a pleasant aftertaste.

Vincent Girardin is a renowned producer of Burgundy wines, with a history that dates back to the 17th century. The company is known for its commitment to quality and its use of traditional winemaking techniques.

This wine is best enjoyed in the company of good friends and family, perhaps paired with a delicious meal of seafood or poultry. Whether you're a seasoned wine connoisseur or just starting to explore the world of wine, Vincent Girardin's Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is a wine that is sure to impress.

Girardin's "regular" bottling of 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is very good, offering up aromas of pear, citrus zest and peach, complemented by hints of freshly baked bread and anise. Full-bodied, deep and textural, it's ample and seamless, with bright acids and a saline finish.
Aromas of pear, buttered toast, quince, white flowers, and fresh bread introduce the 2018 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, a full-bodied, layered, and intense wine that's racy and electric, with terrific concentration, tangy acids and a long, intensely sapid finish.
The 2017 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru was one of the most introverted wines in the range, unwinding to reveal scents of pear, white flowers, confit citrus and a delicate top note of petrol. On the palate, it's full-bodied, ample, and satiny, with a deep and intensely concentrated core, but it's still very reserved after its recent bottling.
Wafting from the glass with aromas of buttered orchard fruit, ripe lemons and blanched almonds, the 2016 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is full-bodied, deep, and concentrated, with a broad-shouldered, powerful profile, chewy structuring dry extract and racy acids, concluding with a long and penetrating finish. This is a very persuasive wine from Girardin.

His reds are of consistently high quality, with the emphasis being on purity of fruit and smooth, supple tannins. However, it is with whites that he really excels, producing a range of wines which are characterised by their depth of fruit and exquisite balance. These whites are extremely approachable when young but the top crus benefit from 4-5 years of bottle ageing.

The reds are made including stems where possible, if ripe and healthy enough, and minimal handling during cuvaison: no punching down at all. As with the whites there is little reliance on new wood.

De Franse wijnstreek Bourgondië (ook wel "Bourgogne" genoemd) mag dan klein zijn in omvang, de invloed ervan is enorm in de wereld van de wijn. De complexiteit van Bourgondië kan zelfs een doorgewinterde wijnprof angst inboezemen, maar vrees niet - de regio hoeft maar zo ingewikkeld te zijn als je zelf wilt. Ja, het is de thuisbasis van enkele van de duurste wijnen in het bekende universum, maar er zijn ook smakelijke en betaalbare wijnen.

Belangrijkste druiven:

Pinot noir komt oorspronkelijk uit de Bourgogne en deze wijnstokken bedekken 34% van de regio, goed voor 29% van de totale wijnproductie. De rode druif doet het uitstekend op kalk- en kleigrond, wat bijdraagt aan de complexiteit. Pinot noir wijnen uit Bourgondië variëren in kleur van kers tot baksteen, hebben een lichte body en hebben meestal rood fruit en kruidige smaken. Gamay is een rode druif die ook aangeplant staat in Bourgondië, maar slechts 10% van de wijnstokken bestaat uit gamay.

Chardonnay is de belangrijkste druif voor witte wijnen in Bourgondië, goed voor 48% van de wijnstokken en 68% van de productie. Chardonnay houdt van de mergelbodem van Bourgondië, die zorgt voor delicate bloemen-, fruit- en mineraalaroma's en een volle smaak. Aligoté is de tweede witte druif, goed voor 6%. {Lees meer over de oude Aligoté druif in Bourgondië.}

De regio produceert wel een mousserende wijn genaamd Crémant de Bourgogne. Deze kan worden gemaakt van chardonnay, pinot noir, pinot gris, aligoté, gamay, sacy en meloen. Variëteiten zijn onder andere blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs en rosé.

The vineyards are located on the slopes of the Corton hill, which is composed of limestone and marl soils.
