$602.00 price per bottle
Domaine Maldant Pauvelot's Corton 'Renardes' Grand Cru 2017 hails from the esteemed Côte de Beaune region in Burgundy, France. This family-owned estate, established in 1893 by Jean Pauvelot, has been passed down through generations, expanding while preserving its founders' spirit. Today, under the guidance of sixth-generation owner Jean-Luc Maldant, the domaine is recognized for its commitment to traditional viticulture and modern oenological practices, producing wines that reflect the unique terroir of Burgundy. Wine Description This Grand Cru Pinot Noir presents an intense velvety crimson hue, deepening towards magenta. The nose offers a generous aromatic expression of fruit notes, including blueberry, gooseberry, and kirsch cherry, complemented by violet flowers. As the wine evolves, it reveals complex layers of underbrush, leather, pepper, and licorice. On the palate, it is well-built, powerful, and muscular, with a chewy body that comes to the forefront. Firm, frank, and fat, this wine requires time (4-12 years) to reach its peak, rewarding patience with a harmonious and opulent finish. Accolades While specific critic scores are not available, this wine holds an average rating of 4. 4 out of 5 based on consumer reviews, indicating high appreciation among wine enthusiasts. Food Pairing This robust wine pairs excellently with richly flavoured meats such as roast or grilled beef, braised game, or dishes in sauce. It also complements strong, soft-centred cheeses and blue cheeses, creating an unforgettable dining experience. Vintage Quality The 2017 vintage in Burgundy was generally very good. Following a challenging 2016 season, the vines showed resilience, leading to wines with balance and depth. This vintage offers outstanding concentration and precision, reflecting both the terroir's excellence and the winemaker's expertise.
