The 2015 Corton Grèves Grand Cru was demonstrating some reduction on the nose, though underneath lie some decent black fruit that should offer good vigor once in bottle. The palate is medium-bodied with sweet supple tannin, well-judged acidity, harmonious in the mouth with a gentle but insistent grip on the silky smooth finish. Once the aromatics gain their cohesion and clarity, which they will, this will be a very fine Corton Grèves.

Bright medium red. Burnished oak scents add another dimension to aromas and flavors of redcurrant, raspberry, dried flowers and soil. Lovely savory, silky wine with serious breadth and richness. At once saline and sweet, this plush wine finishes with excellent length and no hard edges.
