  February 6, 2019 - Similar to first note except more muted notes and tannins resolved. Quite enjoyable and ready to consume.

  December 6, 2016 - I think storage has been an issue. Flat and cooked on the nose. Flavour ok if muted.

  June 8, 2015 - Blind tasted. Most of the group was between Sangiovese, Nebbiolo, and Burgundy. I correctly guessed older Burgundy, I said '02 Gevrey.

  January 18, 2013 - This is a lighter-bodied, elegant and understated wine, with a lovely mix of red fruit and soil tones. Drinking well now and a nice but not profound bottle to have with some classic winter French dishes (in our case, cassoulet and Beef bourguignon from our local bistro)

  October 22, 2012 - Excellent complexity on the nose. Really primary, but a balanced nose of blackberry, sous-bois, asian spices, pine needles, which evolve as the wine breathes. On taste a balanced succulent blackberry and raspberry taste with an excellent finish. Really a baby still - this will just get better over time. Only downside is the body which may be a tad light but this is the kind of Burgundy I like. Really a nice complex wine. 92 because I believe it will only get better with age. A prime example of a grand cru although Corton is frequently denigrated as a Grand Cru.
