Description

White wine - 100 % Chardonnay

Rare and refined, this Grand Cru white Burgundy is a benchmark expression of Chardonnay from one of the region’s most revered terroirs. With limited production and remarkable aging potential, it is a collector-worthy wine that offers both immediate pleasure and long-term elegance.

This 2022 Corton-Charlemagne has a pale, bright color typical of fine whites. On the nose, it offers notes of white-fleshed fruits, white flowers, and subtle oak nuances. On the palate, it is full-bodied with fresh acidity and persistent minerality, indicating excellent aging potential. Its finesse and balance make it a wine of distinction.

Located in the communes of Aloxe-Corton and Pernand-Vergelesses, the vineyard benefits from marl and clay soils, ideal for Chardonnay. The 2022 harvest's optimal ripeness yielded a wine of great elegance. Hand harvesting preserves the quality of the grapes, and the vineyard’s size contributes to the wine’s precision and finesse.

Aging lasts approximately 12 to 18 months, partly in new French oak barrels, adding complexity and roundness. No filtration is performed before bottling, maintaining purity and texture. Careful wood management enhances the wine’s terroir-driven personality, making it a standout among Grand Crus.

Serving recommendations

Serve at 10–12 °C. Pairs beautifully with roasted lobster – its buttery texture and delicate sweetness perfectly complement the wine’s minerality and freshness. Also excellent with veal loin in a white wine sauce – the tender meat highlights the wine’s elegance and subtletyAged Comté or Gruyère cheese enhances the wine’s complexity, texture, and long, clean finish.

About brand

Located in the commune of Vougeot within France’s renowned Burgundy region, the historic Domaine Bertagna boasts vineyards with a storied past, once belonging to the Cistercian monks of the nearby Abbey of Cîteaux, who famously founded Clos de Vougeot in the 12th century. The modern narrative of the Bertagna estate has been beautifully shaped by the fifth-generation winemaking Reh family.

While the extended Reh family owns several winemaking ventures globally, including Germany’s renowned Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt, their footprint in Burgundy has steadily grown since 1954. Gunther Reh acquired Domaine Bertagna in 1982, and his dynamic daughter, Eva Reh, took over management of the estate in 1988.

Wine Style

Under Eva's direction, Domaine Bertagna has placed significant emphasis on fermentation technologies and modern vineyard management. Her winemaking philosophy highlights terroir expression, purity of fruit, intense aromatics, elegance, longevity, and subtle oak influence. These are precise Burgundy wines that beautifully articulate a classic style.

  • Red wines – best known for their elegant, silky expressions.
  • White wines – produce superb white wines, including one of the world’s rarest releases, "Vougeot 1er Cru Blanc ‘Les Cras’."

Prestigious Vineyards

Domaine Bertagna cultivates vineyards across 18 different appellations within Burgundy’s highly regarded Côte de Nuits region, with 12 of these being Premiers and Grands Crus. This quality and diversity have solidified the estate’s place among the top echelon of Burgundian domaines.

Aging and Enjoyment Period

Eva’s efforts have been abundantly rewarded with numerous 90+ point ratings from leading U.S. wine industry publications. While the acclaim is gratifying, Eva’s focus remains on crafting exceptional wines that offer the purest possible expression of their origin – the hallmark of a forward-thinking leader with the highest quality standards. These wines boast not only excellent current quality but also significant aging potential.
