Bruno Clair’s wings are spread widely over the Cote d’Or, covering nine appellations in total. Bruno, first and foremost, is a vigneron and, with the help of winemaker Philippe Brun, produces some of Burgundy’s purest examples, adopting an approach that involves back-breaking vineyard work and minimal intervention winemaking, using a mixture of large old wooden foudres and smaller barriques for the long slow ageing process. The estate is renowned, in particular, for its excellent value Marsannays, stunning Gevreys and old vines Savigny Cuvees.


The 2017 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is matured in a judicious 20% new oak. It has a honeyed bouquet of white peach, mango and light yellow flower aromas. The tensile palate is well-balanced on the entry, and the resinous, waxy-textured finish seems to coat the mouth. I would have liked a little more weight, but otherwise, this should drink well for 10 to 12 years.
