Moillard Corton Charlemagne

The Moillard Corton Charlemagne is a prestigious Grand Cru white wine, representing the pinnacle of Chardonnay from Burgundy’s famed hill of Corton. This wine is a benchmark of power and elegance, offering remarkable complexity and significant aging potential for collectors and enthusiasts.

Founded in Nuits-Saint-Georges in 1850, Maison Moillard is a historic and respected Burgundian producer and négociant-éleveur. The house is known for its traditional winemaking philosophy, meticulously selecting grapes from the finest terroirs across the Côte d’Or. Moillard consistently crafts wines that are classic, expressive, and built for longevity, solidifying their reputation for quality.

In the glass, the Moillard Corton Charlemagne exhibits a brilliant golden-yellow hue with shimmering highlights. The nose is intense and complex, offering aromas of ripe orchard fruit, lemon confit, and toasted almonds, layered with a distinctive flinty minerality. The palate is full-bodied and powerful yet perfectly balanced by a vibrant acidity, revealing deep flavors of pear, buttered brioche, and hazelnut that culminate in a long, sophisticated finish.

For an optimal tasting experience, serve this exceptional wine slightly chilled, between 12-14°C (54-57°F). It pairs magnificently with rich and refined cuisine, such as lobster with a butter sauce, roasted poultry with morel mushrooms, or fine-aged Comté cheese.
