Description
The Corton Pougets Grand Cru has a light marine influence on the nose that laps against the redcurrant and cranberry fruit, just a touch of red plum in the background. The palate is supple and lithe in the mouth, the oak nicely integrated, quite minerally with good density and grip in the finish. It perhaps just lacks a little persistence, but it should age with style.
Food Pairing
Will complement roast meat with a highly-seasoned sauce, game and most cheeses.
