Corton 'Cuvée Baie par Baie'

by Moron-Garcia

Corton

Corton is the only red Grand Cru in the entire Cote de Beaune, on a hill Charlemagne himself is said to have gifted to the church in 775. "Baie par baie" means "berry by berry" - a reference to sorting fruit at that level of precision before fermentation, on ground with about 1,250 years of continuous winemaking history behind it.

Vintages

  • 2019

    A standout across the board: warm, dry growing conditions delivered a rare combination of ripeness, concentration and the acidity to balance it, in both reds and whites.

  • 2018

    A hot year with an early harvest and big volumes. Concentrated, ripe, immediately pleasurable wines in both colours - the surprise is how many turned out crisper than a warm vintage usually allows.
