"Eighty-year-old venerable vines are the source of this deep-red Corton, expressive and intense on the nose (red fruit, licorice, toasty wood and vanilla). Tender and suave on the palate, backed by soft, fine tannins, with a slightly harsher finish. An amiable, playful Corton, to be enjoyed relatively young". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2017)
