Over the last decade, vinification has become more and more gentle, with no pumping during fermentation or élevage, and no filtration before bottling.

The grapes are seldom destemmed and new oak used sparingly, so the house style is strong, but for my money, these are among the small handful of wines that realize the true potential of the hill of Corton. Indeed, if these vines were growing in Vosne-Romanée and Chambolle-Musigny instead of Savigny-lès-Beaune, Pernand-Vergelesses and Alox-Corton, the wines they produce would already be prohibitively expensive, so shrewd consumers should take note. Heavily frosted in 2016—fully 11 hectares yielded a mere 7 barrels after the combined depredations of mildew and the cold—the vines bounced back the following year, giving a generous 35-40 hectoliters per hectare in 2017. The result is a supple, open-knit range that will never rival the domaine's 2016s and 2015s, but which will provide plenty of near-term pleasure, with the Corton Bressandes and Clos du Roi showing, unsurprisingly, the best potential for the long haul. From bottle, the 2016s, however, are magical: from the cellar-worthy Bourgogne Gelée Royale to the deep, concentrated and searingly mineral Corton Clos du Roi, readers who are prepared to cellar their Burgundies for a decade or more will be rewarded with profound bottles, defined by their terroirs. 2017, by contrast, will be better adapted to anyone seeking immediate gratification.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wine Advocate\u003c\/p\u003e\t","brand":"Chandon de Briailles","offers":[{"title":"Chandon de Briailles, Pernand Vergelesses Premier Cru \"La vie est belle\" White 2017","offer_id":47612106047721,"sku":"MOW-FR-BRG-CHANDOND-2017","price":88.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/7626\/0585\/files\/8edbcfa0d87b446d97358f5207c28ffa.png?v=1722410282"},{"product_id":"chateau-camensac-haut-medoc-2016","title":"Chateau de Camensac, Haut Medoc Grand Cru Classe 2016","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 65-hectare vineyard of Château de Camensac is planted to 60% cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, located slightly east of the southern tip of Saint Julien appellation, not that far from Chateau Beychevelle.

It was a path linking the Garonne valley to Spain, the route of which was away from Roman roads and important roads in the Middle Ages and under the Ancien Régime, which earned it to be exempted from rights of way. Today, the Ténarèze therefore designates a wine-growing area specific to Armagnac, officially recognized as such and whose delimitation covers specific limestone soils, called “peyrusquets” in Gascony. Having Montréal-du-Gers as its epicenter, the part of the Ténarèze bordering the estate has a strong wine-growing vocation and is an important center of Armagnac production. Its eaux-de-vie also bear a specific imprint and are reputed to be “powerful and full-bodied”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the location of the estate, the Ténarèze presents the configuration of interfluves generated by the Auzoue and Osse rivers, the latter dominated by the hillside of Heux carrying its vineyard. Following them, the clays mingle with a sector rich in limestone, judiciously baptized the White Lands. Halfway up the hill, the limestone composes with a large vein of brown clay, rich in iron oxide, and defines the gifted nature of the Côte d'Heux.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe notion of terroir integrating the climate, that of the Ténarèze has an oceanic tendency, with however less accentuated rainfall and distributed according to a Mediterranean regime, the influences of which are also felt in the mild winters. In more local considerations, the prominent position of the Chiroulet site in the Gers context exposes it more particularly to winds, the most striking of which is a cold current coming from the Pyrenees. It is called \"chiroula\" in Gascon patois and, from cause to effect, has come to explicitly qualify the name of the Chiroulet estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhilippe Fezas' intuition to see in his vineyard a blessed land for reds proved to be more than justified. However, before appreciating the accomplishment of his plan, his objectification went through an in-depth analysis of the soils in order to determine their aptitudes to achieve the most favorable soil\/grape variety adequations. This reconnaissance work was carried out under the expert eye of geologist Pierre Chevalier. The pedological study of the soils thus conditioned the method of planting at the location of each plot. Coupled with agronomic considerations, this approach has made it possible to define, for each unit of the terroir, the grape varieties, the rootstock and the density of cultivation best suited to the development of the grapes. Thus identified, the vineyard revealed a palette of soils with potential as diverse as they were specific and which enabled the winemaker to create a flourishing range of wines with an accomplished vocation. More particularly, the red grape varieties have found here an unsuspected land of choice, to the point of generating highly expressive cuvées that are completely new, if not unique within the Côtes de Gascogne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe approach to the terroir surrounding the estate would not have known such completion without the obligation to conscientious viticulture where the cycle of life is respected and maintained. Reasoned tillage, the addition of organic fertilizers and natural amendments meet this requirement. Progressing in stages, the conversion to organic farming will consolidate a commitment for which the ground has been prepared by obtaining a High Environmental Value certification at the highest level of its criteria, known as HVE level 3. prescriptions governing the operation itself, the groves next to the vines – “buscagnos” in Gascon patois – are an integral part of the considerations on their environment and are included in a regional agroforestry project. Their maintenance benefits the ecosystem of the vine and makes it possible to relocate fertility and biomass to the plots, incidentally regulating the auxiliary fauna and the ambient microclimate.
