Out of stock

The fine and skilful use of wood is reflected in subtle aromas of vanilla, bread crust and light tobacco. The 2013 Corton smells slightly smoky and at the same time shows a lot of fruit - apple, quince, lemon peel, lemon balm and clear lime blossom notes, some camomile and ginger pour out of the glass.

Color

Sparkling golden yellow.

Nose

The 2013 Corton smells slightly smoky and at the same time shows a lot of fruit - apple, quince, lemon peel, lemon balm and clear lime blossom notes, some chamomile and ginger stream out of the glass. The fine and skilful use of wood is reflected in subtle aromas of vanilla, bread crust and light tobacco. Already in the nose a coherent, elegant and smooth white Burgundy.

Palate

This elegance is wonderfully transported to the tongue, where the use of wood brings out the impression of enamel and noble aristocracy even more. It virtually flows over the palate with bright fruit, fresh acidity, well embedded in the fruit melt and with a delicate spicy note. In the aftertaste, it surprises with a cool and extremely animating note, which gives it a wonderful drinking flow.

Food recommendation

If you want to open it in its youthful stage, you would do well to decant it two to three hours in advance and enjoy it from a large Burgundy glass.
