Domaine Bouchard Père & Fils Le Corton 1998
Aloxe-Corton, Côte de Beaune, Côte d'Or, Burgundy, FranceLots of earthy, barnyard, gamey, spicy, licorice aromas with cherry jam, forest floor, pepper and oak toast. Big young rich style with slightly dry but ripe tannins. Fine intensity of flavours with cherry, berry jam, earth, spicy clove and vanilla. Good length and moderately elegant for a Corton but definitely a chunkier style. Needs 4-6 years to fully shine.
