Corton Grand Cru Les Maréchaudes Grivelet Père et Fils 2005

The Grivelet Père et Fils vineyard, located in the heart of the rolling hills of the Côte de Beaune, produces red and white wines, in Premier Cru and Grand Cru, reflecting the flavours of internationally acclaimed appellations. The Dukes of Burgundy already appreciated the richness and fiery character of the wines produced on the Côte de Beaune in the late Middle Ages. The reputation of the region’s terroir was established there and then, never to fade. In those days, the wines were known as vin de Beaune. It wasn’t until 1936 that cuvées produced from these vineyards were labelled as Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée. Located between 300 and 370 metres above sea level, each plot benefits from plenty of sunshine, with the vines facing the morning sun. As a result, Grivelet Père et Fils craft a range of authentic, delicious and aromatic cuvées that reflect the region and its renowned appellations.
