Tasting Notes

    Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The 2011 Corton Clos du Roi has an intense bouquet that is well defined with more fruit intensity than Vougeraie’s own Clos du Roi, displaying lifted black cherry, wild strawberry and chlorophyll scents. The palate is smooth and harmonious on the entry, although the oak here is quite conspicuous and tends to erase not just the hard edges, but some of the personality on the austere finish. Perhaps I would afford this Clos du Roi another 3-4 years in bottle to see if it can muster something more eloquent to say. Drink 2016-2026

    Score: 91-94

    A highly complex and intensely sauvage nose of floral elements, pungent earth, humus, underbrush and discreet spice elements serves as an appropriate introduction to the impressively rich big-bodied flavors that possess a firm but not rustic tannic structure. There is excellent power and plenty of Corton-style muscle on the balanced and strikingly persistent finish. A classically styled example that will require plenty of cellar time. Drink 2022+

    Good medium red. Very ripe, high-toned aromas of cherry, crushed stone and subtle stems. Big, rich and dry; more brooding and less filled in today than the Rugiens. More saline, medicinal soil tones and minerality than primary fruit showing today: little in the way of easy sweetness. Finishes with big, broad tannins and lingering smoky earth tones.

    This wine has been sitting in barrel and slowly degassing because it can handle being in barrel for 19 months. Rich and round. Creditable. Drink 2017-2025

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.
