"As one would reasonably expect in magnum format, this has aged extremely well and has only just now arrived at its peak with just enough secondary development to add layering to the elegant aromas of green apple, wet stone and floral hints. There is good punch and focused power to the utterly delicious and well-delineated middle weight flavors that possess fine length on the beautifully well-balanced finish. This should continue to drink well for years to come though I would not expect any further upside development."

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.
