A ripe nose of red currant fruit liqueur aromas displays added breadth in the form of violets, plum, black cherry and a hint of the sauvage. There is plenty of earth influence to the punchy, rich and well-detailed mineral-inflected broad-shouldered flavors that possess some rusticity on the mildly austere and saline-inflected finish. This is surprisingly approachable for a young Corton and I really like the way that it fans out on the impressively persistent finale.

A ripe but brooding nose of dark berry fruit liqueur aromas display added breadth in the form of violets, plum, black cherry and a hint of the sauvage. There is plenty of earth influence to the punchy, rich and well-detailed mineral-inflected broad-shouldered flavors that possess some rusticity on the moderately austere finish. This robust and muscular yet focused effort will require plenty of bottle age to soften the prominent structure.
