A very delicious wine that is at its peak now, and a testament to how Corton can age beautifully and mellow - it retained its character of the terrior but had mellowed with age to be very pleasant. The only nit was a slightly high level of acidity - but the bouquet more than made up for that. very nice.

Perfectly plausible but did not rise to the level of amazing.

Goodbye Dinner for Gabriel's Restaurant (Gabriel's - Highwood IL): Very mature for a 1985, particularly for Corton. Good earthy flavors and aromas with modest remaining fruit. Still good textures and finesse.
