Nestled at the foot of the Corton hillside in Aloxe-Corton, Château Corton Caroline is one of Burgundy’s most iconic landmarks. Built in the late 19th century atop 15th-century cellars, this listed monument is the region’s most photographed site after the Hospices de Beaune. Legend has it that Emperor Charlemagne once owned vineyards here in the 8th century and planted Chardonnay to keep his white beard unstained.

The estate’s seven hectares span thirteen prestigious appellations—including Corton, Corton-Charlemagne, Meursault, Volnay, and Pommard—each part of Burgundy’s mosaic of climats, where the expression of terroir has been refined for centuries.

Under the ownership of Caroline Frey, renowned oenologist and winegrower, Château Corton Caroline unites Burgundian tradition with a sustainable, precision-driven approach. With intentionally limited production, each wine is crafted to capture the purity and character of its origin.

Popes have described the wines of Savigny-lès-Beaune as “theological,” a fitting tribute to a village with deep historical roots. Home to vineyards long held by the Dukes of Burgundy, the Cistercians, and the Knights of Malta, Savigny-lès-Beaune is both one of the largest wine-growing villages in the Côte d’Or and one of the most storied. The lieu-dit Les Guettotes takes its name from the medieval term for lookout points used to survey the countryside and safeguard passing travellers.

The nose is immediately expressive, opening with generous aromas of ripe black fruits layered with warming spice. On the palate, the wine shows a beautifully supple texture, combining density and juiciness with impressive poise. Its exceptional balance gives it an appealing sense of harmony, allowing it to be enjoyed in its youth while still hinting at the depth and structure to evolve gracefully over time.

Domaine Charly Nicolle was created with less than one hectare in 1979 by Robert Nicolle and Josette Laroche, who can both trace their winemaking heritage in Fleys back to the late 19th century. Since the creation of the Domaine, they have increased the size of their vineyards bit by bit, and today the Domaine produces wine from 20 hectares of vines. In 1999, they were joined by their son Charly, who had just graduated from the lycée viticole. Charly is now officially in charge of the Domaine, together with his wife Lucie, but Robert is still out in the vines nearly every day. The largest holdings of the Domaine are in AOC Chablis, located mostly around the family's beloved village of Fleys.

With a brilliant straw-yellow hue, this wine shines with exceptional clarity. The nose is delicate and pure, showcasing floral notes that reflect its clay-limestone origins. On the palate, it reveals the depth and complexity of a Grand Cru, where vibrant minerality meets rich, powerful layers of ripe fruit. Elegant yet expressive, this wine embodies both its terroir and its pedigree.

Match the richness in this wine with equally rich fare - try with braised pork belly with apple and fennel slaw.
