James Suckling – Cherry crushed-strawberry and rose aromas with notes of fresh herbs. It’s medium-to full-bodied with sleek tannins and lively acidity. Round and juicy with a bright core of fruit on the mid-palate. Fresh with soft power and a flavorful finish. Needs two or three years to soften.
Decanter – One for lovers of Corton with some muscularity this sturdy red hails from two parcels in the Grand Cru - the Drouhins pulled out a third in Bressandes - and has plenty of fruit sweetness to soften the tannic grip. Floral top notes lead you into a palate with juicy plum and mulberry fruit and enough acidity to bring freshness to the finish.

The color is rather deep its nose powerful and verging on candied fruit and spices when maturing. It has good structure in the mouth without harshness. A good Corton must have "gras" (a velvety texture) to counterbalance tannin and acidity. On the palate it recalls the candied fruit present in the nose. Very long and persistent it ends on a very complex note.
