Note di degustazione
Tasted blind at the annual "Burgfest" tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru from Tollot-Beaut was showing some volatility on the nose, but underneath lie attractive red and black fruit that convey great energy and vitality. The palate is medium-bodied with supple ripe tannin. This is very smooth and very harmonious, silky and pure with a patina of creamy new oak on the finish. It is modern in style for sure, but well defined and long in the mouth. If you appreciate bold and brassy Corton-Bressandes, then this is for you.

A dark, exotic beauty, the 2012 Corton-Bressandes is utterly captivating. Like the Corton, the Corton-Bressandes is surprisingly open and expressive today. Black cherries, menthol and cloves are some of the many notes that blossom as the 2012 fills out its broad-shouldered frame. The explosive, tannic finish points to a very bright structure. Here, too, the wine's overall balance is simply magnificent.
Lightish cherry red. Gorgeous aroma of sweet, delicate red cherries. Elegant, fine tannins. Lively even now but with depth and excellent length. (JH)
