Vinous Neal Martin - 01 May 19
The 2010 Corton Grand Cru was the second release from DRC after taking over the Prince Florent de Merode holdings en fermage. This bottles showed very well. It is extremely perfumed, almost heady on the nose with beautifully defined blue fruit laced with violet. There is something sensual about the aromatics. The palate is lush on the entry that belies the structure underneath. It is just as crisp as it showed just after bottling, here with an added dash of white pepper on the aftertaste. Delicious. Tasted at the Bistro Roch in Nuits Saint-Georges.
