The nose typically unfolds with citrus peel, orchard fruit, white flowers, and a subtle flinty, mineral edge, supported by delicate oak spice and a touch of savory complexity.\n\nOn the palate, Corton-Charlemagne from Roulot is usually layered and focused, with vibrant acidity, impressive concentration, and a firm mineral spine. The texture is elegant rather than heavy, carrying the fruit through a long, precise finish. This is a wine with excellent aging potential and should gain further depth, nutty complexity, and harmony over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrown in the Grand Cru vineyards of Corton-Charlemagne in Burgundy, this wine comes from one of the region’s most celebrated terroirs for Chardonnay. The site’s limestone-rich soils and elevated exposure are key to the wine’s tension, structure, and mineral character. As with the domaine’s philosophy, fruit is typically hand-harvested and vinified with a focus on transparency and finesse, often using native yeasts and maturation in French oak to support complexity without overwhelming the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a superb match for refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, roast turbot, or poultry with cream and mushroom sauces. It also pairs beautifully with truffled risotto, aged Comté, or other delicate yet richly flavored cuisine. Serve chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider decanting young bottles for 30–60 minutes to let the wine open up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDomaine Roulot traces its roots to the 1930s, when Guy Roulot left his career as a pharmacist to take over family vineyards in Meursault. Under his son Jean-Marc Roulot, the domaine became internationally admired for its precision-crafted white Burgundies and its deep respect for terroir. Today, Roulot is celebrated for organic and biodynamic vineyard practices, careful cellar work, and wines that are among the most sought-after in Burgundy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roulot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54251858002257,"sku":"GCW-CCLW-17112609","price":695.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/2017_Roulot_CortonCharlemagne_Grand_Cru.png?v=1783441902","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/2017-roulot-corton-charlemagne-grand-cru","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
