A small family owned Domaine in the heart of the Côte-d’Or in the village of Magny les Villers, just outside Nuits-St-Georges. With holdings on 14 titles in both the Côtes de Beaune and Côtes de Nuits, across 19acres farmed organically and vinified traditionally resulting in pure whites and muscular reds that age well.Champions of the Ladoix appellation at the foot of the hill of Corton, this is burgundy with soul.
Not as prickly as some Aligoté with a lovely nose of baby apricots and lemons. Touches of sandalwood and meringue, almost Pavlovatones. The palate, like all of Domaine Cornu’s wines has lovely texture, with calm & relaxed fruit. As you expect from this grape, there’s a real build of tangy lemons, and no aggressive acidity to be seen. Fantastic shape and weight are the hallmarks here.
Plum skins and rose petals with a degree of sweet earthen tones can be seen on the nose. Firm acidity embraces the back end, supporting the supple cherries. Strong shoulders, this wine is nevertheless softened by well-marked fruit and by a degree of roundness on the palate.
