Corton, Grand Cru, 2020
Wonderfully red fruited and floral, with fine, detailed, lace-like tannins; this is one of the prettiest Corton’s you are likely to come across – a wine that combines detail and delicacy to superb effect. Great freshness and a long fine whispered finish. Gorgeous. This comes from the south facing Le Charlemagne plot, adjacent to Frank’s white Corton Charlemagne plot. The white soils here produce a Corton of great refinement and elegance.
critic reviews
The 2020 Corton Grand Cru has a splendid nose with brambly red fruit, briar, light earthy notes and good vigor. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red fruit, sour cherry and orange rind. Quite zesty and joyful, there's plenty of brightness towards the chalky finish. This is a Corton to enjoy over the next 20 years. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
