(no frost here; this site was picked after the Chambertin in 2016, on October 3 and 4, with potential alcohol of 12% and a yield of 35 hectoliters per hectare): Bright, dark red-ruby. Brisk aromas of black cherry and licorice accented by black pepper and pungent minerality. The sappy flavors of small wild red berries and spices are quite primary but with its suavity and sweetness this young wine already shows considerable early appeal. This distinctly airy Corton grand cru finishes with firm but fully ripe tannins and lovely lingering spiciness. My style of Burgundy.
