Domaine Bonneau du Martray is one of the great names of the Corton hill, based in Pernand-Vergelesses and devoted almost entirely to Corton-Charlemagne. The domaine produces only grand cru wines, with Chardonnay from Corton-Charlemagne and a small amount of red Corton from Pinot Noir. Its white wines are known for their length, restraint and mineral depth, combining the breadth of Corton with a firm, finely drawn structure. They are among the classic benchmarks for age-worthy white Burgundy.
