  March 10, 2024 - Wow this is very impressive - testimony of DRCs continued improvements. Beautiful nose and so much going on here with great refinement. Not super long but sufficiently expressive for a very high rating.

  November 18, 2023 - I actually like this more now than a few years ago. Excellent spice and a powerful mid palate. Nice detail. Definitely a green stemmy quality but I find it interesting vs off putting. Not sure how this improves so I will have this a few more times on the next 5 years.

  October 12, 2021 - Drank off the List at Le Gavroche in London. Decanted, but drank immediately from decanter. Provenance should be ex-Corney & Barrow.
  
  Classic DRC nose, and the palate packs a punch as you'd expect from a good Corton. Unfortunately this had some green notes to it - perhaps due to the vintage - and also uncharacteristically for DRC collapsed into a bit of an acidic mess after about 3 hours in.
  
  Many others have said it, and I agree: it's not worth the price of entry. A good wine, but DRC only deals in great so it was slightly disappointing, especially after it started falling off the cliff.

  I have to say this is the best Corton I have had. Simply mind blowing for a Corton.

  June 30, 2019 - Musique & Vin - Dîner de Gala - Douzième édition du Festival (Château du Clos de Vougeot): So much red cherry in many variations, coming across as sweet, bright and tart all at the same time. Very good density but firm in the middle, so just begging for a few more years in the cellar.
