Description

98 points James Suckling
"Complex meaty and spicy nose. This effortlessly marries the wild and refined sides of this Grand Cru! The fruit character stands on a mighty tower of tannins that are at once fine and slightly herbal. What an amazingly energetic finish!"

Vinous Reverie Notes
"Grancey" was the name of the last owners of the Château situated on the road of Corton before the Latour family bought it in 1891. This wine, produced by Maison Louis Latour, is unique and exclusive. It is a blend of five areas of Domaine Latour Corton Grand Cru: Bressandes, Perrières, Grèves, Clos du Roi, and Chaumes, the proportions of which vary depending on the vintage. The average age of the vines is over 40 years. After aging individually, only the best barrels are meticulously selected to create the Château Corton Grancey. It is a wine produced only if the grapes are of perfect maturity; vintages judged inferior are systematically declassified. Tasting Notes: Deep ruby color with a hint of garnet. It is complex on the nose with aromas of black cherry, blueberry, and moka. Round in the mouth, it is lightly peperry on the final. This wine stands out for its complexity and the softness of its tannins. Food Pairing: Wild boar - roasted beef - roasted quail - duck "à l'orange" - mature cheeses.
