Score 95/100 · Drink 1993-2035, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Feb 2025
A wine that attained 13.3% natural alcohol, the 1971 Château Corton-Grancey Grand Cru is drinking beautifully today, offering up aromas of sweet red berry and cherry fruit mingled with hints of truffle and grilled squab. Full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with a sweet, layered core of fruit, supple tannins and ripe acids, it concludes with a long, expansive finish.
