The 2018 Corton-Perrières Grand Cru has turned out especially well, unfurling in the glass with notes of sweet berries, dark chocolate, coniferous forest floor and petals. Medium to full-bodied, layered, and muscular, with fine concentration, refined tannins, and lively acids, it's long and mineral.
