Corton Grand cru Les Renardes 2013

- 95 points -

From the highest part of Renardes, thes grapes are grown on very chalky soils and get no whole bunch fermentation as a result. It’s a high-browed, almost intellectual wine with finesse and nuance and none of the slightly rasping tannnins that you find in some Cortons. Fresh, stylish and classy.
