Chartron et Trebuchet Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru
Maison Chartron et Trebuchet
France - Burgundy - Cote de Beaune

The vineyard is located in the north of the Côte de Beaune, between the villages of Aloxe-Corton and Ladoix-Serrigny, on the heights of the mythical Mountain of Corton. 

The wine offers a pale golden color and a complex nose of candied orange, hawthorn, hazelnut, and brioche. Generous flavors and crisp acidity provide a great length and a good aging potential.
