Product details
Domaine Tollot-Beaut & Fils Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru 2022 is a distinguished expression of Burgundy's esteemed terroir, crafted by the Tollot family, whose winemaking heritage in Chorey-lès-Beaune dates back to the late 19th century. Currently managed by cousins Nathalie, Jean-Paul, and Olivier Tollot, the domaine spans 24 hectares across notable appellations, including Aloxe-Corton, where the Corton-Bressandes climat is situated. This Grand Cru Pinot Noir is sourced from east-facing vineyards with high limestone content, contributing to the wine's structure and elegance. Fermented traditionally and aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which are new, the 2022 vintage reflects the family's commitment to producing wines that balance power with finesse.
The 2022 Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru exhibits a deep ruby hue and offers an aromatic bouquet of ripe red berries, cured meats, sweet spices, and subtle earthy undertones. On the palate, it is full-bodied with fine-grained tannins, revealing layers of dark fruit, graphite, and a touch of cigar box, culminating in a long, refined finish with lingering salinity. Critics have praised its complexity and aging potential, with Vinous awarding it 95 points, noting its "impressive backbone" and "ample length." This wine pairs exceptionally well with rich dishes such as roasted game birds, grilled duck breast, and mushroom-based cuisine, making it a versatile choice for gourmet pairings.
