Understanding Domaine Chandon de Briailles, Corton Grand Cru, Blanc, Burgundy
The Corton Blanc from Domaine Chandon de Briailles is the result of a harmonious balance between traditional winemaking practices and a profound respect for the environment. The domaine’s adherence to biodynamic farming principles ensures the vitality of the vineyard and the authentic expression of the Chardonnay grape. In the cellar, a thoughtful approach to vinification, including the use of indigenous yeasts, gravity processes to preserve fruit purity and oak ageing for 14 to 18 months, serves to highlight the wine’s complex flavour profile and structural integrity. This Grand Cru Chardonnay showcases vibrant citrus, ripe orchard fruits, subtle floral notes and minerality, underpinned by a creamy texture and a long, refined finish. This Corton Blanc has considerable cellaring capacity.
