Allen Meadows' Burghound, January 2012
A brooding, deep and introverted nose grudgingly gives up notes of cassis, earth,
wood and a hint of animale. The intense, brawny and imposingly structured flavors possess superb volume and almost
breathtaking power on the explosive and mouth coating finish that is of monumental proportions. This is a classic Corton yet
consistent with the style of the 2010 vintage, this is not unduly rustic, indeed the tannins, while firm, are actually relatively
refined. A knock out by any standard but at the same time, a wine for the genuinely patient.
