The 2014 Domaine Bonneau du Martray Corton Grand Cru is a refined and classic expression of red Burgundy from one of the Côte de Beaune’s most prestigious estates, crafted from Pinot Noir grown on the limestone-rich slopes of the Corton hill. This vintage highlights elegance, freshness and terroir-driven precision. The nose is delicate and aromatic, showing red cherry, raspberry and wild berries, layered with hints of spice, licorice and subtle earthy notes.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with bright acidity and fine, supple tannins, delivering a core of red fruit balanced by mineral nuances and a savoury edge. The finish is long, fresh and persistent, emphasizing finesse over power. The style is elegant and nuanced, with excellent balance and aging potential.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a classic, terroir-driven Grand Cru Burgundy for those who appreciate elegance and subtle complexity. It’s approachable now with decanting but will continue to evolve over the next 10–15 years. Ideal with roasted poultry, duck, mushroom dishes or refined French cuisine.
