Domaine Dubreuil Fontaine Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru 2021 is a refined, classically styled Corton from one of the hill’s most coveted sites, offering lifted red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry with hints of violet, spice and that tell‑tale Corton earth and crushed stone. Domaine Dubreuil‑Fontaine’s Corton Clos du Roi 2021 sits in the elegant, red‑fruited camp, showing the precision and freshness you expect from this cooler Burgundy vintage.

On the palate it is medium‑bodied, finely structured and savoury, with pure red fruits, subtle oak, fine but persistent tannins and bright acidity pulling everything long. This is a wine built more on finesse than sheer power, and it will benefit enormously from a few years in the cellar, with a sweet spot likely from around 2028 onward.

Food‑wise, Corton Clos du Roi is a beautiful match for roast duck, confit duck, roast chicken, pork loin and veal, and it absolutely sings with mushroom dishes and truffled risotto. It will also sit comfortably alongside semi‑hard cheeses, charcuterie and more refined game dishes,
