The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Pierre Girardin, son of the renowned Vincent Girardin, is making a name for himself with stunning wines that capture the essence of Burgundy. His Meursaults and Pommards are something special—delicate and layered, without heavy oaky influences getting in the way, just pure, nuanced flavors.

We were among the first to recognise his talent and build a strong relationship with him. Today, this partnership allows us to offer you these cuvées, which perfectly showcase his masterful craftsmanship.
Wine The 2022 White Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru La Croix is situated in Aloxe-Corton, under the Croix de Corton, a prime southeast-facing slope. Aged entirely in new demi-muid barrels, it displays remarkable breadth, with vibrant, tension-filled energy that unfolds into flinty notes and a fresh, saline finish. This is an exceptional wine, crafted for both patience and the table.
Vinification Hand-harvested, vinified and aged in 456-litre barrels for 12 months, 100% of which are new, then in stainless-steel vats for 5 months.
