2019 | Domaine Henri & Gilles Buisson | Corton Le Rognet et Corton

A wine that offers a real presence, a beautiful intensity while retaining its finesse and elegance. When young, Rognet-et-Corton exudes notes of spicy fruit, blackcurrant and kirsch. As it ages, it develops aromas of undergrowth, truffles and leather.

Reviews:

• Wine & Spirit : A shade richer and riper than this producer's more bracing Corton Les Renardes, this bottling highlights fleshy, tooth-staining flavors of preserved plum and blueberry accented by a dark, earthen undertow.

Producer Information

The Buisson family has been tending vines in Saint-Romain since the 11th century. The family started buying up vineyards around Beaune in the 1920s. Henri and Marguerite Buisson owned the domaine in the 1950s (Henri actually began bottling in 1947) and their son Gilles and his wife, Monica, took over in the 1980s adding illustrious vineyards in Corton, Pommard, Meursault, Volnay and Beaune to the estate’s base holdings in Saint-Romain. Gilles began handing over to his sons, Franck and Frédérick, in the early 2000s. Big brother Franck looks after the business and operational side of things, little brother Fred makes the wines.The Buisson estate has been biodynamically certified since 2018. Within the appellation of St-Romain, the Buissons’ vineyard area covers seven climats – five white, two red. From two of these, they also produce a red and white no-added-sulphur cuvée, Absolu, otherwise made in exactly the same way as their conventional cuvées from the same sites.
