2022 Corton Rognet

0.41 ha (1 acre). Shallow 40-carbonic maceration soil over rock. Cask sample. Mid ruby. Red fruits – cherries, redcurrants and raspberry. Very fresh with cut white flowers, too. Rounded fruit and lots of freshness. This wears its appellation lightly. No massive Corton character or hard tannins. Elegant and lightly concentrated. ‘Great performer in hot vintages’, Romain Taupenot says. ‘A Corton from the Côte de Nuits.’ (MH)
