The first traces of vineyards in the town of Aloxe-Corton date back to the 2nd century BC. Later, Corton will be Charlemagne's favorite wine. Unique red Grand Cru of the Côte de Beaune, Corton is also the only Grand Cru of Côte d'Or to be divided into sub-climates. "Le Corton" designates the historic parcel that gave its name to the Corton appellation.
Le Clos du Roy once belonged to the Kings of France. It was considered one of the best plots in the appellation. The Faiveley family acquired it in 1971. This wine could be compared to a village in the Côte de Nuits for the finesse of its tannins and its length in the mouth.
Fifty-year-old vine, in a single block, located on the hillside, near Pommard 1er cru Pezerolles and Épenots. Rich wine with lots of character. Mixture of red and black fruits with a slightly wild touch. Silky attack, with very present aromas, giving it a good length at the end of the mouth.
