The tiny En Naget vineyard, a monopole of this estate, is the most southerly facing of the Ladoix premier crus, and lies at the very top of the slope beside Corton-Charlemagne. It is in fact better situated than the other side of Corton-Charlemagne, which faces west and even northwest.

The soil here is white marl with limestone: perfect for Chardonnay.

And with only 20% new oak, the fruit and mineral complexity really shine. But it’s the sheer power – much more than you’d find in a similar Puligny or Meursault, that marks this as essentially Corton-Charlemagne.

And while this is very impressive (and delicious) now, it will age dramatically for a decade or more.
