2021 Arnaud Baillot | Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru | Burgundy | 750ml

Grand Cru White Burgundy — Monumental Structure, Mineral Power & Alpine Precision ✨🍷

The 2021 Arnaud Baillot Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is a commanding expression of one of Burgundy’s most revered white Grand Cru vineyards. Perched high on the Hill of Corton, Corton-Charlemagne is celebrated for producing Chardonnays of exceptional tension, minerality, and longevity—often more powerful and linear than its Montrachet counterparts.

The cooler 2021 vintage enhances precision and freshness, delivering a wine defined by chiselled acidity, crushed-stone minerality, and restrained orchard fruit. Arnaud Baillot’s disciplined, terroir-first approach allows the Grand Cru site to speak with clarity, resulting in a wine that is intense yet refined, built for long-term aging and serious collectors.
