2018 Corton, Renardes, Grand Cru, Domaine Michel Gaunoux, Burgundy

Description

Save 10% on the 75cl bottle, previously priced at £135.50. Offer valid while stocks last. BBX listings excluded.

Like the Bourgogne, there is a mentholated element to the ripe aromas of poached plum and a mix of various red and dark cherry scents that convey a whisper of the Sauvage. The highly seductive, indeed suave medium, weight plus flavours envelop the palate with sappy dry extract that does a fine job of buffering the very firm tannic spine shaping the wonderfully long, dusty, austere and lengthy finish that also displays just a barely perceptible trace of warmth. Lovely stuff, and in contrast to several of the preceding wines, this could be reasonably approached after 7 to 8 years though it should repay up to twenty.

Drink from 2034 onward
