Description

Benjamin Leroux Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2016Lerouxs Corton Charlemagne comes from a tiny 0. 12 hectares plot in En Charlemagne on the Pernand side of the hill, where the vines were planted in the late 70s. Two barrels out of four were new. The 2016 Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru was sporting a small reduction on the nose though there is plenty of fruit underneath. The palate is quite powerful and voluminous, waxy in texture with a touch of orange rind on the slightly short finish.

It results from the blending of grands crus from the classified Cote des Blancs vineyards (Chardonnay) and the Montagne de Reims (Pinot Noir)
