Allen Meadows, Score: 90-93
While there again is some menthol character present it's more subtle on the slightly less complex aromas of various dark berries that are laced with warm earth and spice nuances. The gorgeously intense if slightly less concentrated medium weight flavors possess a succulent but muscular mouthfeel while delivering fine length on the slightly firm and grippy finale. Patience again strongly counseled.
Region
Corton
The Grands Crus of Corton, a red made from Pinot Noir, and Corton Charlemagne, a white made from Chardonnay are shared between Aloxe-Corton, Ladoix Serrigny and Pernand Vergelesses. The vines for both are planted on the hillsides underneath the plateau of Corton's woodland forest. The majorityof Pinot Noir is planted in the southern and eastern sector where the soil is naturally rich with red iron clay giving additional body and power. Overall, the wines from these areas tend to be fruit forward and fleshy with a balance of round edges and fine concentration.
