The 2022 Bouchard Père & Fils Le Corton Grand Cru is an exceptional Grand Cru Burgundy crafted from Pinot Noir grown on the legendary Corton hill in the Côte de Beaune. Produced by one of Burgundy's most historic and respected houses, it showcases remarkable power, elegance and terroir expression. The nose is intensely aromatic, revealing aromas of black cherry, wild blackberry and redcurrant, complemented by notes of violet, forest floor, sweet spice and finely integrated French oak.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with silky, fine-grained tannins, vibrant natural acidity and a beautifully layered texture, delivering flavours of black cherry, plum and blackberry alongside hints of cedar, truffle, graphite and striking mineral complexity. The finish is long, refined and beautifully balanced, combining concentration with exceptional finesse and outstanding ageing potential.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Grand Cru Burgundy for collectors and lovers of world-class Pinot Noir seeking depth, elegance and longevity. Enjoy after a gentle decant or cellar confidently over the next 15–20 years. Ideal with roast duck, venison, beef Wellington, truffle-infused dishes or mature Comté and Époisses cheese.
