"The 2015 Corton “Perrière” from Domaine Méo-Camuzet is also an outstanding example of the vintage, with some whole clusters included this year. The bouquet is deep, primary and nicely reserved in profile, offering up a quite black fruity blend of dark berries, black cherries, espresso, soil tones, woodsmoke, venison and cedar. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and quite primary in personality, with a rock solid core, fine-grained tannins and excellent length and grip on the focused and soil-driven finish. I did not take note of how much new wood was used for the Perrière, but I imagine it was similar to the Vignes Cents."

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.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
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.
