Domaine Dubreuil-Fontaine Père et Fils - Corton-Clos du Roi Grand Cru 2021

Domaine Dubreuil-Fontaine Père et Fils — one of our flagship Burgundy producers — was established in 1879; five generations later, it is managed by Christine Gruère-Dubreuil, and her husband, Nicolas Gruère, along with their daughter, Clementine, who has officially joined her mother in the vineyards and cellar. Superb winemaking tradition and an intense love of their land has enabled the estate to rise to epic status, using the family motto, “Pleasure and passion carry on…” as a guideline for success. This family has spent nearly a century and a half chasing perfection, and that fact is beautifully evident in each new vintage from this unforgettable estate.

Dubreuil-Fontaine's Corton-Clos du Roi is always one of the best wines produced from this historic vineyard. In the glass, the wine shows a gorgeous ruby color with intoxicating aromas of ripe cherry, raspberry and currant. A wonderful mineral backbone permeates the wine with silky tannins that caress the palate and create its soft, luscious texture which flows into a long, concentrated finish. Tightly wound, this stunning Grand Cru will age beautifully: It is the epitome of Corton-Clos du Roi!
