Product Information:
Pure, spicy aromas of apple, fresh apricot, wild mint and talc. Sweet on entry, then extremely young and impressively intense, with a youthful bitterness to its tactile crushed stone flavor. For all its dustiness, this boasts a lovely light touch. Fascinating wine in the making. 91-94 points - Stephen Tanzer
Other Reviews: Saouma noted that there was a small percentage of pinot blanc in the vineyard. A moderately exotic fruit nose offers good freshness and concentration if not elegance though the borderline massive flavors are powerful, dense and mouth coating and this is very much consistent with a big Corton red as there is plenty of muscle here. This is an interesting wine that should offer solid cellaring potential. Burghound
