點擊次數(shù)：6246

The 2010 Corton Rognets is striking. Seamless layers of dark red fruit, freshly cut flowers and mint are some of the many notes that flow from this impeccable, silky Corton. This is all elegance and class, quite different from the reputation of Corton. The wine needs a few years to absorb its 50% new oak barrels, but it is still pretty impressive at present. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2030. Winemaker David Croix describes 2010 as being similar to 2002, but with more tension. The harvest started on September 23. About two-thirds of the wines were lightly chaptalized. None of these wines had been racked at the time of my visit in November 2011. Giroud fans will note the addition of two new Volnays to the lineup. I will report on the maison’s 2009s in the April issue.
