Meursault Porusots 1er Cru
Cuvée Jéhan Humblot 2018

PDF



Region: Côte de Beaune
Village: Meursault
Level: Premier Cru
AOC: Meursault Porusots 1er Cru
Grapes: Chardonnay
Color: White

Tasting

Splendid yellow bright colour. Nose with almond, quince and sunny citrus fruits. Dense mouth that nonetheless preserves its minerality and the amplitude of this great terroir.

Food matching

The generosity and intensity of this wine will match food in the same vein: grilled seafood, mushroom creamy soup, poultry with truffles.

History

Jéhan Humblot was the state prosecutor and royal notary in Beaune. He donated an extensive property near Montagny to the Hôtel-Dieu, in 1600. For the first time in 2005, this Cuvée was made up entirely from the Premier Cru Growth Les Porusots. All the vines here pre-date 1975, indeed some date back to 1936 and 1953.

Corton Grand Cru Cuvée Docteur Peste (white)

PDF



Region: Côte de Beaune
Village: Aloxe-Corton
Level: Grand Cru
AOC: Corton Grand Cru
Grapes: Chardonnay
Color: White

Tasting

A very solid yellow colour indicates a wine of considerable intensity. The fruit is luxurious in quality, definitely showing some yellow stone-fruits, fresh flowers and citrus, and full enough to match the firm structure of the finish. This is a powerful Corton with a real cellaring potential.

Food matching

The wine’s power deserves a cuisine on a par: beautiful grilled fish, goat cheese… or just on its own to pay respect to its splendour.

History

Jean-Louis Peste was a doctor at the Hospices de Beaune for 30 years in the mid-19th century. His daughter, Baroness du Baÿ, bequeathed a vast estate to the Hôtel-Dieu in his memory, in 1924. Made from 89% fully mature, or very old vines, this Cuvée comes principally (52%) from Chaumes et Voierosses, which is south and south-west-facing land. These vines were planted 4 times between 1976 and 1985. Les Bressandes, whose oldest vines date from 1940, with Les Grèves bring complexity, richness and balance to this Cuvée.

Corton Vergennes Grand Cru Cuvée Paul Chanson

PDF



Region: Côte de Beaune
Village: Aloxe-Corton
Level: Grand Cru
AOC: Corton Vergennes Grand Cru
Grapes: Chardonnay
Color: White

Tasting

Full pale yellow in colour, with a concentration of ripe apples with some pears and flowers in the bouquet, it is a heavyweight for sure, with a significant volume of fruit and fine persistence. A wine that ages beautifully to reveal its full potential.

Food matching

The wine’s nobility requires very fine cuisine: scallops carpaccio, sushi, grilled seabass.

History

Paul Chanson was a great ambassador for the wines of France, and for Burgundy in particular. This Cuvée comes from old vines, which he bequeathed to the Hospices in 1974. Paul Chanson always used to say they were Pinots Blancs, rather than Chardonnay. They are planted on a prominent hillock adjoining Corton-Bressandes, on land most often carrying Pinots Noirs, and give fascinating wine, often with an aroma of quince 30% of the vines date from 1987, the balance from 1940’s.

Meursault Charmes 1er Cru Cuvée Bahezre de Lanlay

PDF



Region: Côte de Beaune
Village: Meursault
Level: Premier Cru
AOC: Meursault Charmes 1er Cru
Grapes: Chardonnay
Color: White

Tasting

Fine pale colour. The bouquet immediately demonstrates the concentration of this cuvée. Predominantly white fruit in style, with some pears in the mix, this displays the full rounded weight of a classic Meursault Charmes, relieved by a correct balancing acidity. The fragrance of balanced yet ripe chardonnay from a great terroir persist beautifully at the finish.

Food matching

veal steack with wild mushrooms, fillet of sole in white butter sauce, old sheep’s milk cheese.

History

Louis de Bahèzre de Lanlay was an inspector of telegraph lines, who bequeathed his fortune to the Hospices de Beaune in 1884, enabling the construction of a surgical block and an old people’s building. This is the larger of the two Hospices Cuvées of Meursault-Charmes, and often the more mineral in character. It comes from very old vines: half from Charmes Dessous (planted 1947), half from Charmes Dessus (planted 1946).

Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru Cuvée Roi Soleil 2015

PDF



Region: Côte de Beaune
Village: Aloxe-Corton
Level: Grand Cru
AOC: Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru
Grapes: Chardonnay
Color: White

Tasting

From the first moment on the nose, this wine shows a grand cru intensity. Hugely weighty fruits and flowers. Same exceptional intensity on the palate, while the acidity at the finish maintains the balance. This has a very long aftertaste and will develop into a wonderful bottle.

Food matching

Vibrant on its own, it will pair finely with fish sashimi, a creamy poultry dish or an old mountain hard cheese.

History

It was in 1584 that Charlotte Dumay bequeathed vines in Corton-Renardes to the Hôtel-Dieu. This Cuvée is called Roi Soleil, in remembrance of King Louis XIV who in 1658, with his mother and his court, visited the Hospices. The King decided to give a yearly grant to the Institution, and all signed the visitors book. Old Pinot Noir vines were pulled up from this plot in 1997. Today’s great white Corton-Charlemagne comes from east-facing land which lies high on the Corton hillside, and is now deemed more suitable for Chardonnay than Pinot Noir. The wine shows great raciness, as well as fine potential for ageing”

Beaune 1er Cru Blanc Cuvée Suzanne & Raymond

PDF



Region: Côte de Beaune
Village: Beaune
Level: Premier Cru
AOC: Beaune 1er Cru
Grapes: Chardonnay
Color: White

Tasting

Clear bright fresh colour, the nose is perfectly poised, showing elegance in the floral bouquet, pure white fruit notes on the palate with a fresh finish.

Food matching

Braised fenel, salmon fishcake, chicken and mushroom pie.

History

This wine comes from a plot which used to be planted with Pinot Noir (the grapes going into the Beaune Cuvée Cyrot-Chaudron). The old Pinot vines were recently pulled up, and the land replanted in 2010 with Chardonnay. The soil is stony and limerich, with white marls – well suited to white wine production. It is high on the hillside, near the source of the Lulunne stream.

Chablis 1er Cru Côtes de Léchet Cuvée J.M. Brocard

PDF



Region: Bourgogne
Village: Chablis
Level: Premier Cru
AOC: Chablis 1er Cru
Grapes: Chardonnay
Color: White

Tasting

Yellow robe with tints of green. Fresh citrus nose. Tension and minerality on the palate.

Food matching

On its own at the aperitif. Seafood and shellfish, trout filet.

History

This vineyard is a gift made in 2015 by Monsieur Jean-Marc Brocard, who was born about 30 kms. west of Beaune in Chaudenay-le-Château. Members of the family were often grateful to Beaune’s Hospital, at times of illness. On his marriage to a girl from the Yonne, Monsieur Brocard moved away, while staying within the region, establishing a vineyard estate in Chablis from 1975 onwards. Côte de Léchet is one of the best known 1st Growths on the Left Bank of the River Serein, which runs through Chablis. These vines are approximately 30 years old, situated in the heart of the pebble- rich, south-east facing, steeply-sloped hillside. The vines are low-yielding, and cultivated bio-dynamically.
