This 1.90 hectare vineyard of Les Caradeux is ideally located halfway up the slope on a hillside near the Corton-Charlemagne vineyards. It has the same geology and is at the same altitude as its illustrious neighbour, but differs from it by its northern exposure. An exceptional terroir marked by intense minerality.
After a mild pressing, the wine was vinified and aged for 10 to 14 months in oak casks in their cellars of the XVth century, with a moderate proportion of new oak.
Refreshing aromas of grapefruit mixed with pale fleshed fruit with a hint of minerality true to the appellation. Cellar for future enjoyment, or enjoy now.
“There is an abundant green apple fruit, with an edge of lemon peel and mineral. There is plenty of tension and freshness, but the wine is still ripe, broad and well-built. Lovely. Chanson has 1.88ha here, making it the largest landowner. The vines face due east at mid-slope in a stony, silty soil on a very steep slope, making this a very cool terroir. The grapes are pressed as whole clusters without crushing, settled briefly, and fermented in cask (20% new).” 94 points, Charles Curtis, Decanter, September 2021
