FAIVELEY - Corton Grand cru Clos des Cortons - 2013

FAIVELEY

Corton Grand cru Clos des Cortons 2013

Full medium red. A note of reduction dissipated to show complex, inviting aromas of redcurrant, raspberry, dried flowers, spices and caraway seed. Dense, dry and gripping, with strong saline minerality giving it a distinctly serious mien. This youthfully uncompromising wine took on more body with aeration and finishes firmly tannic and very long. Very 2013 in its impression of salinity and extract.
