Note di degustazione
The 2020 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru has a well-defined bouquet, a mixture of red and black fruit, crushed stone and a hint of pencil box. It is nicely focused and has well-integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with a slightly slender entry and light grip. A keen line of acidity and fine-boned tannins redeems it. Dark berry fruit laced with Earl Grey and bay leaf gently fans out towards the finish. This is a discrete Corton that will age deceptively well in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

70-year-old vines. Cask sample. Lovely mix of red and dark fruits; depth of fruit retains great freshness and not overtly stamped by any tannic imprint. Quite charming and playful, as Cortons go in their youth. (MH)
The 2020 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru is two-thirds whole cluster fruit. Quite closed, broody and stroppy on the nose, it does not budge when I gave my glass aeration. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent tannins, quite saline and spicy, a dash of white pepper towards the finish. Good depth, quite voluminous on the finish. Give this 4-6 years in bottle. Closure: Diam
