Excellent wine. Very floral nose - violets, raspberries, wild strawberries. The palate shows very nice acidity, lots red fruits (mostly raspberries) and some red cherries, then you have this white pepper note and light oak on the nice ending that shows also some licorice and leather, with tannins that are in a good spot right now. Being this a 2014, it's an extremely approachable Corton already and I wouldn't mind opening another bottle now. Just decant for a hour or so.

Terroirs de Corton - Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne (Cuverie Domaine Latour - Aloxe-Corton): Tasting, brief note. bottled February. 80% whole cluster, rare in Corton. Also sweet cherry aromas and flavors, slightly brighter vs Bressandes. Also firm and tannic, but less so than Bressandes, slightly more accessible. Also good+ for its level, 2022 forward.
