The 2022 Domaine Bonneau du Martray Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is a benchmark white Burgundy from one of the Côte de Beaune’s most prestigious estates, crafted from Chardonnay grown on the limestone-rich slopes of the Corton hill. Known for its precision and longevity, this Grand Cru reflects both power and finesse. The nose is complex and layered, showing citrus, ripe orchard fruit and white flowers, with hints of nutmeg, flint and fresh bread.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and seamless, with a satiny texture, vibrant acidity and a pronounced mineral backbone. The finish is long, refined and persistent, combining richness with energy and precision.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a top-tier Grand Cru Burgundy and a must-have for collectors. It offers both immediate appeal and exceptional aging potential. Best from 2027 onwards, with decades of evolution ahead. Ideal with lobster, butter-rich seafood or refined dishes.
