Bouchard Pere & Fils, Le Corton Grand Cru Domaine (Ex Dom release 2024) 2011 (1.5L)

"Expressive, wild aromas of raspberry, spices, flowers, minerals, mint, leather and meat. Lovely sweetness and breadth but almost surprisingly open-knit for young grand cru. I find both overripe and minty elements here. In fact, this fruit was picked on September 4 with close to 14% potential alcohol, noted winemaker Prost, adding that he found it light at the beginning. "But it's growing every day in the barrel, like a white wine." Very tricky to judge today." – Vinous
