Founded in the 1960s in Gevrey-Chambertin, domain Jean-Claude Boisset is now a veritable empire. No situated at the heart of Burgundy in Nuits-Saint-Georges, the grapes bought come from over 40 hectares that include several premiers crus and 3 grands crus, Charmes-Chambertin, Mazis-Chambertin and Clos de la Roche. Since 2002, Grégory Patriat makes the house's wines, including some cuvées that are produced in very limited quantities. A house that has made good progress over the years.

This prestigious Corton Grand Cru stems from iron-rich clay and marl soils situated at an altitude of 300 metres, which contribute complexity and power to the grapes. Manual harvests are followed by a first selection of bunches in the vineyard and a second on a sorting table in the winery. The grapes are partially destemmed and not crushed, then gravity-fed into vats for a five-day pre-fermentation cold maceration, followed by a long fermentation with native yeasts, with no added sulphur or tannins. The vatting period lasts 22 days, with light pumping over and vertical pressing. The juice is aged on lees for 16 months in French oak casks, with 30% new wood, adding subtle woody notes.
The nose reveals intense aromas of violet, cherry and raspberry, with a floral and peppery touch. On the palate, it offers a dense, delicate texture, marked by freshness and great length.
