Corton-Bressandes, Grand Cru, 2023
Fine dark fruits with a creamy structure. What muscle it has is gentle and covered by a richness of fruit and a fine base of gourmand tannins. A well-mannered Bressandes with good energy, a fine acid line and a mix of deeper earthy fruit and raspberry highlights. Lots to enjoy here.?From two parcels which, combined, equal just one hectare, with the oldest vines planted in the 1950s. Nathalie’s Bressandes tends to yield refined wines of great finesse.
critic reviews
The 2023 Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru has a well-defined bouquet, with neatly integrated 50% new oak and just a touch of reduction at the moment. The palate is smooth on the entry with touches of black pepper. The 2023 is a "fluid" Corton-Bressandes, harmonious with a commendably precise, fresh, licorice-tinged finish. Hunt this down—a superb Corton-Bressandes.
