Corton Bressandes Grand Cru 2011

This is also exceptionally fresh with lovely dried floral, black cherry, earth, spice and wet stone aromas. This is slightly more concentrated than the Paulands with fine size, weight and focused power to the sleekly muscular flavors that are quite firmly structured, indeed this is markedly austere on the lingering finish. Unlike the prior two grands crus, this is not likely to drink nearly as well young and will likely need a minimum of 10 years to be at its best.
