January 2, 2023 - This is lovely, elegant and charming, beautifully fragrant, maturing with some development mixes through the fruit. Light footed and understated, if only all cabs were like this and if only I had more bottles !

December 25, 2020 - With Christmas lunch 2020 - rib of roast English beef
Beautiful dark ruby purple with a hint of brick. Crystal clear. The nose is stunning - plums, tea, hedgerow fruit, blackberry leaves. Beautiful balance, powerful but precise. So typical of Corison. Full, clean, balanced and simply bursting with life. My wine of the year, without a doubt and what a pairing with pink roast beef.
Absolutely no regrets about drinking this, my last bottle. This is why I'm in to wine. Breathtakingly beautiful and my highest ever score.1 person found this helpful Comment -

October 14, 2018 - Far superior to previous bottles. Really lovely and expressive nose...cassis and cigar box, spices a touch of dust, soft fruit and with some lingering tannin on the finish.
