162.00 € Tax included

Here is one of the greatest red wines of the Côte de Beaune in Burgundy, a Corton Pougets Grand Cru from Domaine Rapet, in the superb 2005 vintage. It offers a deep colourand on the nose, rich fruity aromas of blueberry, redcurrant and kirsch, and notes of leather, undergrowth, sweet spices and liquorice. On the palate, it is powerful, sensual and full-bodied, very well structured, and is perfectly ripe after 15 years of cellar storage.

It is the ideal accompaniment to grilled and roasted beef, braised game and in sauce, andstrong cheeses.

In the vineyards of Corton, between 250 and 300 metres above sea level, the terroir of Corton Pougets offers a perfect geological cut from the Jurassic, on a gently sloping mid-slope, on a reddish and stony soil, calcareous and rich in marl, which offers the Pinot Noir ideal conditions for its full development.
