Corton Bressandes, Grand Cru, 2015

Bressandes is usually one of the bolder, larger-framed and extroverted wines in the cellar. Firmer and more structured than the Aloxes, but there is so much to like about this, it’s so complete and has such great fruit expression. Ripe, dark, sweet fruit flavours of bramble, blackthorn and damson, rich and warming but well-defined. Full to the brim of complex fruit, spice and undergrowth characteristics. Mighty yet so appealing and attractive.
