A great wine and site that recently came under DRC ownership and now comes with a 10x price tag.

What is now the vineyard for DRC's Corton I believe this is the last vintage under the old ownership.

What a nose. Not what I expected from a Corton. Floral nose with a touch of wildness to it. Dark cherries and maybe vanilla. Spices... clove and nutmeg. Immediately thought Morey, but the extremely elegant mouth feel and sweetness on the palate made me think Chambolle. Bit of smoke in the end. One of the last few vintages before the plots were sold to DRC.
