Domaine Bonneau du Martray
This prestigious estate, which makes only a single Corton grand cru red and a Corton-Charlemagne from its prime 11 hectares of vines on the Corton hill, was purchased by American billionaire Stan Kroenke (owner of Screaming Eagle and the Arsenal football club) at the end of 2016, following two centuries of ownership by the family of Jean-Charles Le Bault de la Morinière, who had worked with his father Jean at the estate since 1969 and took over winemaking duties in 1994. He oversaw the conversion of the estate to organic viticulture (Bonneau du Martray is certified by EcoCert) in the early 2000s. Cellarmaster Emmanuel Hautus, who has been here since 2011, assured me that the wines are made today by the same team and according to the same organic principles.
