Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru

Domaine Bonneau du Martray's vineyard, extending from the top to the bottom of the hill in Corton-Charlemagne, showcases a diverse soil composition of clays, silts, marls, and different types of limestone. This variety imparts distinct characteristics to the wine: crystalline appearance with floral and citrus notes from the top parcels, structure and grain from the central vines, and mineral-rich power from the lower parcels. The winemaking process begins with light crushing of the berries before pressing for gentle aromatic extraction. Fermentation occurs in both new and aged French oak barrels, followed by ageing on fine lees through a second winter. After a second racking to remove the remaining lees, the wine is transferred to tanks for two more months to ensure homogenization before bottling during a waning moon phase.
