Still deep ruby with only moderate bricking. The nose is exceptionally ripe....The big, velvety, still moderately structured flavors offer medium complexity and plenty of richness but they are a bit too ripe to offer the elegance and finesse that one usually encounters in fine burgs of this age. Still, for fans of power and richness, there is plenty to admire here.

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Corton is the Cote de Beaune's principal red Grand Cru, spanning the Corton hill across Aloxe-Corton and neighbors, producing powerful, tannic and structured Pinot Noir reds needing time to soften and unfold.
