Corton, Marechaudes, Grand Cru, 2020

Available Vintages
justerini & brooks tasting note

A prime 1.5ha parcel planted on iron rich soils. This is a grand, dark fruited Marechaudes packed with bramble, blood orange and orange zest character. Hearty, deep and muscled without being burly. The key here is it has a freshness and energy to go with the rippling structure. Brilliant and statuesque.

critic reviews

89/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2020 Corton Les Maréchaudes Grand Cru has a ripe nose, "sunny" in a good way, with red cherries, hints of kirsch and blood orange. It's well-defined, with just a patina of new oak to be assimilated. The palate is medium-bodied with relatively rigid tannins. Linear and correct, this Corton misses the flair shown on the aromatics. It's tightly coiled on a finish that needs more complexity and charm. Like several others, this is well below the promise it showed from barrel. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
