Tasting notes

The 2013 Domaine Comte Senard Corton Grand Cru ‘Les Bressandes’ offers a refined and elegant expression of Pinot Noir. The nose reveals vibrant aromas of red cherry, raspberry, dried rose petals, and a touch of forest floor and spice. On the palate, it is supple and silky, with fresh red fruit, fine tannins, and bright acidity. A hint of graphite and earthy minerality adds depth, while the finish is long and graceful, showcasing finesse over power. This is a poised, approachable Grand Cru with classic Corton charm.

More About The Winery

Founded in 1857 by Jules Senard, Domaine Comte Senard is a historic Burgundy estate best known for its Corton-Clos des Meix Monopole, which became a Grand Cru vineyard in 1937 with the creation of the AOC. Over five generations, the domaine has expanded to encompass 22 acres of prestigious terroirs, including Corton-Clos du Roi, Corton-Bressandes, and Corton-Paulandes — jewels of the northern Côte de Beaune.

The wines of Corton are renowned for their depth, power, and longevity, and Domaine Comte Senard captures this essence with remarkable precision. Today, the estate is led by Lorraine Senard, who continues her family’s tradition while bringing a fresh, modern vision. She practices sustainable, organic viticulture, hand-harvesting with meticulous sorting to preserve the integrity of the fruit.

In the cellar, winemaking respects tradition with a cold soak, gentle pressing, and temperature-controlled fermentation, followed by ageing in the domaine’s 14th-century cellars built by Benedictine monks. The result is a range of wines that are seductive, structured, and built to age with grace, showcasing the full power and finesse of Corton’s terroir.
