WINE DESCRIPTION
Jean Chartron Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is a highly sought-after white wine produced by the renowned Jean Chartron winery in the Burgundy region of France. This wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru appellation, which is known for its steep slopes and limestone-rich soils that impart a unique minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the best grapes, gentle pressing, and aging in oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and depth. The resulting wine is a beautifully balanced and elegant expression of the terroir, with notes of citrus, white flowers, and a subtle hint of oak. It is a perfect choice for those who appreciate the finesse and complexity of Burgundy white wines.
