Product description
Fresh red fruit, soft and elegant, black cherry, touch of oak and excellent concentration to the fruit. Structured and deep this will be fascinating to taste over the next three decades.
The 2018 Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru comes from two parcels amounting to a single hectare of vines. This is more mineral-driven than the straight Le Corton, offering beautifully defined red berry fruit laced with crushed limestone and light marine aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with powerful red berry fruit. Quite heady for a Corton-Bressandes, leading to an intense finish. Perhaps this year I err toward the restraint shown by the Le Corton.
