Wine Critic Reviews
Fleshy and gourmand, the 2018 Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru evokes peonies, rose petals, red berries, cherries and loamy soil. Full-bodied, layered and velvety, it's sumptuous and enveloping, with an ample core of pure, succulent fruit framed by lively acids and powdery tannins.

The 2018 Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru has a captivating bouquet of vivid red berry fruit tinged with Seville orange marmalade and sous-bois aromas, conveying wonderful energy and classicism. The cohesive palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fine bead of acidity and a sense of linearity and strictness on the finish. Maybe a little more closed than the Maréchaudes at the moment, it will need 3–4 years to flex its muscles.
