The Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru by Bouchard Père & Fils is an extraordinary example of what Burgundy has to offer in the realm of white wines. This Chardonnay, produced in one of the most prestigious Grand Cru appellations of the region, presents itself with a clear and brilliant golden color. The meticulous vinification and aging in French oak barrels give the wine an elegant structure and remarkable aromatic complexity. On the nose, it opens with intense aromas of white-fleshed fruits, such as apple and pear, enriched by nuances of lemon, wildflowers, and subtle hints of vanilla and toasting. On the palate, it is rich and creamy, with a magnificent freshness that balances its rich texture and leads to a long and persistent finish. A wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has great aging potential. Ideal for pairing with refined fish dishes, shellfish, or aged cheeses.
