Community Tasting Note

89 Points

Sunday, January 29, 2012 - Bricked light red. Nose shows autumnal notes, earthy, sour cherry with a hint of spice. On taste a sappy strawberry turning to cherry with tannins very smooth. Excellent flavor throughout the palate, almost sweet. A long finish with a slight spine or structure still there. Well resolved and a very nice Corton. Not much experience with Cortons so I imagine this is still a bit young. I have had the Pougets versions from earlier vintages and they were more primary than this Corton Greves.
As this wine opens up much more intensity and complexity. The spice notes are coming out with tumeric? and mint notes. Mint is just a hint.
