An elegant, admirably pure and highly complex nose speaks of really lovely aromas of wild red berries, raspberry liqueur, plum and discreet mineral nuances. The supple and round larger-scaled flavors possess an intensely stony character that imparts both lift and refinement to the linear and persistent finish that is underpinned by a notably firm tannic spine. Score: 91 - 93 Allen Meadows, Burghound Maturity: 2025+ 10 January 2012 |

The 2010 Corton Les Perrieres comes across as quite firm, tannic and unyielding. This is all about pure length and minerality. Dark red and black fruit notes struggle to emerge with air, but the wine’s energy is so massively implosive that it is hard to get a great read at this stage. Still, it is impossible to miss the focus and sheer verve of what is in the glass. There certainly appears to be the potential for the Perrieres to develop into a splendid wine. It is already pretty terrific, if not fully formed. Anticipated maturity: 2025-2045. Score: 91 - 93 Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2025-2045 23 December 2011 |
