Nicolas Potel is an iconic producer in Burgundy. He grew up in a family dedicated entirely to wine; and after gaining some experience internationally, he started his own project in the late 90's.

The famous “Hill of Corton” is located in northern edge of the Côte de Beaune. This vintage is from Le Rognet, which lies on the eastern slope of the hill, in the village of Ladoix-Serrigny. Very dark with black core. Intense and pure dark dark fruit with an overlay of vanilla sweetness more than spice. Deep and fully complex. 

Pair this delicious and delicate wine with duck breast, mushroom risotto or beef tartar.

This a deeply coloured, now maturing pinot from the famous Grand Cru hill of Corton. The aromas are somewhat reserved and ripe with black cherry jam, considerable forest floor/mushroom, a meaty note, vanillin and fine wood spice. It is quite full bodied, almost voluminous and rich with very fine tannin. The alcohol is up there but balanced by the fruit depth. The length is excellent. Drink now with aeration but it still needs some time in my view. Best 2025 to 2033. Tasted January 2023
