Chorey Les Beaunes, Edmond Cornu et Fils
‘Les Bons Ores’ is entirely hand harvested from vines that are in excess of 35 years old. While the harvest is less from older vines the fruit is much more concentrated. The pinot noir is aged 15 - 18 months in oak, which gives this voluptuous, tangy Burgundy a spice box full of aromas, elegantly rounded tannins and a generous dollop of red cherry fruit. This Chorey Les Beaunes red is simply delicious.
Domaine Edmond Cornu et Fils
The Cornu family established itself in the town of Ladoix in 1870 and founded the domaine shortly thereafter in 1875. Edmond Cornu assumed command of the estate in 1956 and in 1959 began to bottle the fruits of his labor. Up to that time all wines made at the estate had been sold to negociants. As the private clientele increased, Cornu also expanded the domaine. With the ascension of his son, Pierre, to full participation in the domaine, this dynamic family has aggressively pursued additional opportunities to acquire prime vineyard sites.
Currently, the estate comprises 13.5 hectares spread among the communes of Ladoix, Chorey, Aloxe Corton and Savigny.
