“The Cortese brothers are among the finest producers of this great cru, and this 2016 is outstanding. The nose is rich and vibrant, with raspberry coulis aromas. High ripeness is immediately discernible but not overblown. Rich and velvety on the palate, it is sleek but concentrated, with finely judged density of fruit that never seems excessive. There’s depth, weight and considerable power here, with a long, complex finish.”

“Aromas of underbrush, camphor, violet, dark culinary spices, new leather and dark-skinned fruit lead the way. The structured, full-bodied palate shows juicy red cherry, raspberry, orange zest, ground clove, star anise and truffle alongside fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. It boasts elegance and structure.” (Editors’ Choice)
