Estimated value

Tasting notes
Mingling aromas of red berries and plums with hints of wintergreen, peonies, dark chocolate and spices, the 2019 Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, with a broad, enveloping core of fruit but also a rather more reserved, introverted profile than the Maréchaudes. It's a promising cuvée in the making.

The 2019 Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru is deeper in color compared with the Les Maréchaudes. The well-defined bouquet features cranberry and wild strawberry scents intermixed with wilted rose petal and sous-bois , delicate yet paradoxically intense. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, and fleshier than the Maréchaudes; the stem addition here seems more enmeshed. Just beautiful.
