Domaine Génot-Boulanger - Corton Grand Cru - Les Combes 2012

Domaine Génot-Boulanger is located in the town of Meursault, in Burgundy. The estate has 22 hectares of vines on the most beautiful wine-growing terroirs of Burgundy: Corton-Charlemagne, Meursault-Bouchères, Puligny-Folatières, Clos de Vougeot… The estate was created in 1974 by Charles-Henri Génot and his wife Marie, born Boulanger. The second generation, carried by their daughter, extended the vineyard to the Côte de Nuits with new acquisitions in three Grands Crus. Since 2008, it has been operated by Aude and Guillaume Lavollée. The couple focuses their qualitative approach on working the vines and more particularly on soil life (organic amendments, ploughing, etc.), followed by a new, less interventionist approach to winemaking. Aude and Guillaume Lavollée are constantly experimenting, closely studying the contributions of biodynamics and, strong in their convictions, decide to engage the estate in viticulture that respects nature and the soil. Domaine Génot-Boulanger has been certified in organic farming since 2018.

This Corton 2012 is made from the Grand Cru Les Combes plot, covering an area of 0.47 hectares, planted with Pinot Noir in 1983 and facing south-west. The harvest is manual and 25 to 30% of the harvest is kept in whole bunches. Fermentation occurs spontaneously with indigenous yeasts and takes place in wooden vats for 20 to 25 days. Each year, the indigenous yeasts offer a different fermentation profile, which expresses the typicality of the vintage. The extractions are gentle with some punching down and pumping over. The wine is aged for 12 months in oak barrels, 20% of which are new, then in vats for 6 months before bottling. 2012 was a vintage with small volume, but qualitative.

Grape variety: 100% Pinot Noir
