Note di degustazione
(vinified with two-thirds whole clusters): Healthy bright medium red. Musky raspberry and crushed stone on the nose. At once silky and perfumed in the middle palate, conveying a savory quality to the flavors of red fruits, minerals and dried flowers. Has plenty of fat to support its broad, fine-grained tannins. A consistent, pliant wine from start to very long finish, showing lovely fruit retention and energy.

(two-thirds whole clusters): Bright, deep red. Aromas of black cherry and black raspberry are complemented by sexy underbrush and spice nuances. At once creamy and tightly knit, combining a fine-grained texture with excellent precision; even this Corton is totally different in texture than de Montille's wines from the southern part of the Côte de Beaune. A sappy, classy wine with terrific finesse and energy. Finishes with lovely breadth and focus, the tannins coated by fruit and minerality.
The 2013 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru, which was two-third whole-cluster fruit, has a well-defined bouquet with very fine mineralité. These aromatics just speak of "class." The palate is medium-bodied with fresh and supple tannins, finely-tuned acidity and commendable precision on the finish. This is a refined and sophisticated Clos du Roi in the making and one of de Montille's standouts of 2013.
Two-thirds whole bunch, 45% new oak. ‘At the turn of the 19th century, Corton was rated up with the best grand crus of the Côte de Nuits.’ Bright and rich nose with more vivacity than most Cortons. Chewy and polished. (JR)
