Description
Domaine des Croix Corton Les Grèves Grand Cru 2020 is a distinguished Pinot Noir from Burgundy’s only Grand Cru appellation in the Côte de Beaune. Produced from the Grèves climat on Corton’s south-facing slopes, it combines the structure and depth expected of Corton with the elegance and aromatic precision associated with Domaine des Croix.
Tasting Notes
The wine displays a deep ruby colour, with the concentration typical of a fine Corton Grand Cru. Its bouquet is layered and expressive, offering ripe red and dark berries alongside floral nuances, subtle spice and earthy complexity. On the palate, the 2020 vintage brings generous fruit, firm yet refined tannins and well-integrated acidity, leading to a long, savoury finish. With appropriate cellaring, it should develop further complexity over the next 10–15 years or more.
Production
Corton Les Grèves is situated on limestone-rich, gently sloping soils in the Côte de Beaune, a terroir that gives Pinot Noir both power and mineral definition. The wine is made from Pinot Noir under Domaine des Croix’s Burgundian approach, with careful attention to fruit selection and gentle vinification to preserve the character of the site. Specific harvesting and maturation details are not provided.
Food & Serving
A natural partner for refined dishes such as roast duck, game birds, beef fillet, lamb and mushroom-based preparations. It also pairs beautifully with mature soft cheeses. Serve at approximately 16–18°C, ideally after allowing the wine to breathe in the glass; a brief decant of 30–60 minutes can be beneficial when opened young, while older bottles should be handled gently to preserve their delicate aromas.
