    The Iconic Corton Grand Cru from Maison Louis Latour

    The Château Corton Grancey Grand Cru Red stands as Maison Louis Latour's flagship red wine. Sourced exclusively from their Domaine-owned Grand Cru parcels on the Corton Hill-a blend of Bressandes, Perrières, Grèves, Clos du Roi, and Chaumes-this cuvée is a testament to the power and finesse of Burgundy's Côte de Beaune. The use of 'Château' is a rare and historic distinction, underscoring its historical importance.

    Tasting Notes & Maturity

    • Appearance: A deep, intense ruby colour.
    • Aroma: A complex bouquet of ripe blackcurrant, blackberry, subtle oak spice, and classic Pinot Noir tertiary notes of forest floor and liquorice.
    • Palate: Powerful yet beautifully balanced, the wine shows a refined structure with silky, persistent tannins. Flavors of dark fruit and cherry lead to a long, beautifully fresh finish with hints of nutmeg and earthy minerality.

    Food Pairing & Service

    A wine for the cellar, with a potential of 10-15 years. Best served at 16-17°C.

    • Recommended Pairings: Beef Wellington, Roast Venison, Game Pie (with rich gravy), Mature Cheddar or Blue Stilton.
