The Ladoix 1er Cru La Corvée is located in Ladoix-Serrigny and has a southeastern mid-slope exposure. The term La Corvée refers to the medieval politico-economic system which lasted until 4 August, 1789. This term refers to the unpaid work imposed by a lord or master on his dependents; it was a form a non-monetary tax. Under this feudal system, serfs and people that were free but too poor were liable to the corvée, i.e. they were indentured servants.
Age of vines: Between 50 and 60 years. This Ladoix 1er Cru La Corvée, is designed to be kept for many years, it is aged 15 months in 50% new wood casks (228L Burgundian tuns).
"The 2021 Ladoix 1er Cru La Corvée is a highlight of the range this year, bursting with aromas of sweet red berries and peonies. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and pure, with a fleshy core of fruit, racy acids and melting tannins, it's a bright, charming wine from Mallard." - 92 Points, Wine Advocate
