This vineyard is in the prime saddle of mid-slope land running between Morey-Saint-Denis and Gevrey-Chambertin, where a large percentage of the Côte de Nuits’s famous grand cru vineyards are located—all of those Chambertins, for example. This land is capable of producing some of Burgundy’s most complete red wines, with depth, body, aromatic complexity, and terroir signatures—power and finesse in spades. Corbeaux abuts the Mazis-Chambertin grand cru, and is similarly muscular in style. Serve with tournedos Rossini, perhaps, if you are feeling truly gourmet and live in a state where foie gras is legal.
