There are background touches of wood spice adding breadth to the floral,and exceptionally ripe mix of various red berries,
earth and subtle sauvage hints that include a note of prune. The overtly powerful and big-bodied flavors possess fine
mid-palate density as there is an abundance of dry extract that helps to buffer the very firm tannic spine on the
succulent and mouth coating finish. This is very Corton in the sense that it’s a big and powerful wine but at present it seems
to lack a bit of vibrancy and the note of prune on the nose is never an encouraging sign. My score offers the benefit of the
doubt that the freshness will pick up with a few years of bottle age in the same fashion as have a number of 2003s and 2009s.
