Domaine Michel Mallard et Fils - Ladoix 1er Cru 'Les Gréchons' 2019
IN STOCK
$69.00
Ladoix 1er Cru Les Gréchons expresses aromas of peach, pear, citrus fruits, white flowers and roasted hazelnuts. The mouth is taut and precise, as often is the case with great Burgundy wines, it also presents a good bite like the “Corton”.
Ageing is an essential step for achieving a quality wine, and this is why we take special care in selecting our barrels. The Ladoix 1er Cru Les Gréchons is designed to be kept for many years, it is aged 15 months in 30% new wood casks (350-litre capacity). We strive to preserve the aromatic uniqueness of this nectar by bringing out its personality and not trying to conceal it. The cask is a true ally for ensuring the wine’s complexity; it bestows the cuvée with a certain style and elegance.
Accompaniments: Seafood risotto, salmon sauerkraut or salmon steak cooked in a paper parcel (papillote), fillet of sole, trout with olives, Norman-style pork.
This baby Corton Charlemagne is a house favorite. Can't recommended enough. Don't miss out on this one. Ladoix is one of the most underappreciated appellations in Burgundy and Michel Mallard is the best ambassador of his home town.
