Corton Grand Cru Le Clos du Roi La Vougeraie 2011

The wine

Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru delivers aromas of red fruit (cherries), and also floral, sweet spice notes. The same fruity aromas are found in the mouth, with a silky substance and remarkable length. This wine pairs very well with poultry dishes.

About the Producer La Vougeraie
