Wines from Corton Vergennes

Sort By:

Chanson Père et Fils 2007 Domaine Héritiers Paul Chanson Pinot Noir (Corton Vergennes)

Online Exclusive

Rounded and fat, with the weight and power of white wines from Corton. The texture is taut, still very young, waiting to allow the full richness of the fruit to come through. Impressive, it needs a minimum of four years aging. — R.V. (12/31/2010)

Chanson Père et Fils 2006 Chardonnay (Corton Vergennes)

Price $235

This is from a sub-division of the Corton vineyard, at the northern end of the Grand Cru. It shows both depth of flavor and freshness, a ripe wine that brings in delicious, appetizing acidity and spicy toast. It will obviously age, the nuts and secondary flavors still waiting to show, but as a fruitier style it will be ready in a year. — R.V. (5/1/2009)

Chanson Père et Fils 2005 Chardonnay (Corton Vergennes)

Price $235

The high toast aromas, typical of Chanson wines, can be off-putting. But get beyond the wood, which needs a couple more years to integrate, and the ripe fruit of 2005 gives this wine density and character. The yellow fruits, ripe cantaloupe melon flavor and sweet acidity will more than hold their own against the wood. — R.V. (5/1/2009)

Chanson Père et Fils 2008 Corton Vergennes Chardonnay (Corton Vergennes)

Cellar Selection

Price $150

A rich and opulent wine from the neighbor of Corton-Charlemagne. Its weight and balancing texture give the wine considerable power and density of fruit, toast and a structure for aging. — R.V. (9/1/2011)

Chanson Père et Fils 2010 Chardonnay (Corton Vergennes)

Online Exclusive

Price $175

Big, rich and powerful, this uses grapes sourced from a small section of the Corton hill that’s close to Charlemagne. It has the ripe pineapple and apricot flavors to go with the acidity. With its enormous concentration, this is ready to age over at least 10 years. — R.V. (11/1/2012)
