A blend of different plots of Corton Grand Cru, this cuvée was created using a destemmed harvest (between 10 and 20%), vinified in concrete vats with indigenous yeasts and raised for 18-20 months in old barrels. Bottled without fining or filtration, this wine has a ruby hue and emanates notes of woodland and kirsch. With time, it will evolve to carry notes of game, and its powerful finish is long-lasting.

Corton Grand Cru Bressandes Chandon de Briailles serve at a temperature of 16°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Gibiers à poil en gigue ou en civet, Carré d'agneau rôti, Echine de porc.

    Information about domain Chandon de Briailles

    Situated in the heart of the Côte de Beaune and spread over three villages (Savigny-Lès-Beaune, Pernand-Vergelesses et Aloxe-Corton), this domain was bought in 1834 by Countess Chandon de Briailles. It has been belonged to the same family ever since. A pioneer of bioydynamics in the region, the domain is also known for its élevages using very little new oak. These wines, perfectly suited to cellaring, are sought-after for their refinement and delicacy.More information : Read the article about domain Chandon de Briailles on the blog
