Jean-Jacques Girard Corton Grand Cru 'En Charlemagne' 2022
Cortons, like their neighbor Corton Charlemagne, are as diverse as the parcels they come from and the producers who make them. You will notice that we offer several different Cortons from several producers. All exceptional examples of this Grand Cru appellation, but each in its own way. We encourage you to buy one of each and arrange a Corton tasting with special friends who would appreciate the occasion.
Jean-Jacques Girard Beaune 1er Cru 'Clos du Roi' 2022
Beaune 1er Cru 'Clos du Roi' is, as the name suggests, one of the best parcels in the hills above Beaune. Beaunes can have the spice of Savigny, so the style plays well into Jean-Jacques Girard's hands, but the Clos du Roi has the oomph of the Corton mountain. Red fruit ans spice, great building intensity, round, fleshy and persistent, It's a fist in a velvet glove.
Jean-Jacques Girard Aloxe-Corton 2022
With this Aloxe Corton, Jean-Jacques comes roaring out of his home valley of Savigny les Beaune. Where his Savigny is floral, spicy and elegant up front, the first nose of this Aloxe Corton is powerful, animal. Then it's a mouthful of black fruit, with the elegance rolling in on the mid-palate and sticking around for the finish and the reflection. This is another register for Jean-Jacques Girard, who, you will find, has perfect pitch!
