Tasting Notes
Region Notes
The Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru appellation is shared between the villages of Aloxe-Corton and Pernand-Vergelesses, located in the northern part of the Côte de Beaune.
Aloxe-Corton is notable for having over half its area covered by Grand Cru vineyards. The vineyard exposure varies from east to south and southwest, offering ideal ripening conditions.
Winemaker's Comments
This vineyard is among the oldest holdings of Maison Louis Jadot, dating back to the 19th century.
Located in the very heart of the appellation, next to Corton Pougets, this site was originally the only area allowed to use the Corton-Charlemagne designation prior to the appellation’s expansion in 1966.
The vineyard benefits from an ideal south-facing orientation, maximizing sun exposure.
Vinification
-
Grapes are harvested by hand and placed in small cases to preserve fruit integrity.
-
They are softly pressed, and fermentation occurs in oak barrels crafted by Louis Jadot’s own cooperage.
-
One-third of the barrels are new, ensuring a balance of oak influence.
-
The wine is aged for approximately 15 months on fine lees before bottling.
Grape Variety
100% Chardonnay

Buying At Auction?
Your Questions, Answered
What do you need from me to get started?
We will need you to confirm that you are over 18 (for obvious reasons!) and to open an account by registering on the site. This will include provision of credit card details for any eventual purchases. You will also need to sign that you have read the terms and conditions.
How many wines are in each Lot?
You will see the quantity (number of bottles) stated above the price. Please note that the bid-price is per bottle so you will need to multiply the price by the number of bottles in the lot to calculate the total price of the lot.
Can I cancel my bid if I change my mind?
All bids are final - please think before you confirm your bid.
How much is the Buyers' Commission?
We have an extremely competitive buyers' commission of 16.5% (GST inclusive). This will be added to the final winning price of your Lot at the end of the auction.
What are your freight charges?
Please see our Delivery Policy for full details relating to freight.
Is there a Guarantee on my wine?
Under Australian law, consumer guarantees do not apply to goods purchased at auction - all such purchases are at the risk of the Buyer. We will always provide as much detail as we can as to the visual condition and provenance of each Lot, however this is done so as a guide rather than as a guarantee.
