Lucien Le Moine Corton Renardes Grand Cru 2016
“Reduction rules the fruit today. Otherwise there is an intense minerality that suffuses the powerful and extract-rich broad-shouldered flavors that are muscular and overtly rustic before terminating in a focused, balanced and linear finish. This bad boy Corton is fashioned in a ‘take no prisoners’ style and will need extended cellaring.”
