It's not too soon to appreciate, but it is too soon. Muscular but supple tannins to the fore. The pure and intense fruit is forced into the background. A powerful and impressive wine is waiting for its day. Patience required. dg

(Vougeraie Corton Le Roi) Only 24hl/ha yields. Medium-plus cherry colour. Combination of high and low toned fruits on the nose. Big but velvety tannins. Great concentration of black fruits. Lovely acid and very long. Good style
