Description

Product description for Henri & Gilles Buisson Corton Grand Cru “Le Rognet-et-Corton” AOC 2022 (bio)

The Buisson family is one of the oldest inhabitants of the village of Saint-Romain on the Côte de Beaune. Their family tree can be traced back to the 12th century. They have been winegrowers since at least 1758. When Saint-Romain received its own AOC in 1947, Henri seized the opportunity and founded his own vineyard, initially with 5 hectares. Henri’s son Gilles later joined the estate and expanded it to 14 hectares in 2000. His sons Franck and Frédérick had it certified organic in 2009. Henri, however, had already farmed the estate this way since the 1960s. Since 2018, the vineyard has officially been certified according to Biodyvin guidelines. The domaine is divided into 12 hectares of Pinot Noir and 7 hectares of Chardonnay. The white and red Saint-Romains are archetypes of the appellation: precise, transparent, vital, and balanced. There are also wines from other Beaune appellations such as Pommard, Meursault and Corton.

Score: (90-92)

The 2022 Corton Le Rognet-et-Corton Grand Cru, which includes around 40% whole bunches, has a backward, obdurate nose that refuses to come out despite vigorous aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet, slightly candied entry, touches of marmalade and orange rind infusing the red fruit with a confit-like finish.
