“The 2013 Corton Bressandes Grand Cru is a blend of young and old vines (11 barrels, half of which are new), and fortunately, it was not affected by hail. It is a fragrant wine with a fairly floral bouquet that exhibits greater purity than some other crus. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fine tannins and lovely acidity, and the new oak is very well integrated into the finish. Very good.” (Wine Advocate 2014 – Robert Parker)

About the estate:
Édouard Labruyère’s enthusiasm and determination to elevate this estate to the ranks of the grands crus are remarkable. His efforts are evident in the vineyard—which has been farmed organically since 1997—in the cellar, where foudres and demi-muids have been in use since 2012, and, most importantly, in the glass. With its exceptional range of grands crus across 22 hectares of vineyards—including 17 hectares in the Côte de Beaune and an exclusive selection of grands crus in the Côte de Nuits—this estate possesses all the qualities needed to join the elite ranks of Burgundy’s estates.
