The 2016 Corton Grand Cru comes across as very reduced on the nose. Plump black cherry and cassis notes, the oak a little heavy. The palate is chewy on the entry with dense black fruit, a solid mass of wine that is lacking the finesse and refinement one would expect from a Grand Cru. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.
