"The 2010 Corton “Perrières” is excellent- as are all three of the Méo Cortons this year- as it offers up a very deep, pure and classy nose of red and black cherries, woodsmoke, gamebirds, great minerality, coffee, a touch of coriander seed and cedary wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and complex, with excellent focus, a fine core, beautiful transparency and outstanding length and grip on the ripely tannic and very refined finish. A beautiful bottle of Corton."

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.
Aloxe-Corton is a village AOC in Burgundy's Cote de Beaune, ringing the Corton hill and holding Premier Cru vineyards; it produces mostly firm, structured, earthy Pinot Noir reds built for medium-term aging.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
