2016 Lucien Le Moine Corton-Renardes Grand Cru

(some frost losses here): Bright ruby-red color. Distinctly wild aromas and flavors of black raspberry, game birds and animal fur. Plush, dense and fine-grained, showing more early personality than the Bressandes despite the fact that there's still a trace of unconverted malic acidity here. Finishes pure and very long, with very suave tannins.
