2014 Edmond Cornu, Ladoix, 1er Cru La Corvee

Domaine Edmond Cornu & Fils is based in the village of Ladoix-Serrigny, where the family has operated their estate since 1875. This Ladoix 1er Cru La Corvee is made from Pinot Noir grown in a southeast-facing parcel of vines that are over 50 years old, situated in iron-rich, stony limestone soil. In the glass, the wine displays a core of smoky minerality layered with spicy black fruit and a firm, structural presence. The 2014 vintage provided a steady growing season that resulted in a balanced, energetic profile with well-integrated acidity. Given its concentration and firm backbone, this wine is built for the cellar, offering excellent potential for those who prefer to age their Burgundy.
