Domaine Tollot-Beaut's Corton Grand Cru comes from the historic slopes of the Corton hill, one of the Côte de Beaune’s few red Grand Crus. The vineyards sit on well-drained limestone and marl soils, with good exposure that allows Pinot Noir to ripen fully while retaining structure. Wines from Corton are typically broader and more powerful than most Beaune reds, combining dark fruit, firm tannins and the capacity to age for many years. Domaine Tollot-Beaut has long been closely associated with Corton, owning several parcels on the hill and known for producing wines that balance the appellation’s natural strength with precision and polish.
