(Belland Adrien Corton Clos de la Vigne au Saint) In the glass - disappointment - there's good depth to the ruby red colour, which fades to amber, but also a slight cloudiness. On the nose, chocolate, meat and a faint oxidative note. On the palate there's good acidity and velvety tannins - still with a little dryness, but leaving a smooth coating on your teeth - always a good sign. Good depth to the sweet fruit with a reasonable chocolaty length. Okay, not a perfect bottle, and if they're all the same then you should look elsewhere. I did, however, manage to finish the bottle without problem :-)
