The massive, broad-shouldered, full-bodied, ripe Corton is medium-to-dark ruby-colored and exhibits a blackberry and toasty oak-laden nose. This structured, masculine, and tannic wine is filled with juicy cassis, cherries, blackberries, and dark raspberries that linger in its long finish.
Dark, dense and brooding, with a wild, feral side, but also intense flavors of blackberry, cassis, bacon and sandalwood. There's also a mineral streak and a corps of well-knit tannins. This will require time, but the payback will be worth it.
