Description
The name comes from "curtis" (the word for an estate in Gallo-Roman times) and Othon, the Emperor who owned this vineyard.
Since the wine travels well, it soon acquired great fame around the world.
Tasting
"Its colour is rather deep.
Its nose powerful and verging on candied fruit and spices when maturing.
It has good structure in the mouth, without harshness. A good Corton must have "gras" (a velvety texture) to counterbalance tannin and acidity. On the palate, it recalls the candied fruit present in the nose. Very long and persistent, it ends on a very complex note".
