Expert Reviews
The 2020 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru initially doesn't have quite the same level of complexity as its peers, although it blossoms in the glass and offers light leafy scents and sous-bois . The reduction seems to become stronger in the glass instead of weaker. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, slightly richer in style with a more obvious oak influence that lacquers the finish. But there is sufficient fruit to assimilate that, and I am intrigued to revisit this in, say, four years. My score here is based on it addressing the reduction and oak. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
