Vincent Girardin Corton Perrieres 2017 skus_5608240 the vegetal and herbal notesBright medium ruby. Very pure scents of black cherry, bitter chocolate and minerals convey a stonier impression than Le Corton. Densely packed, classically dry and quite primary, with aeration bringing a restrained sweetness and excellent mineral lift. Very precise and airy in the middle palate, with a firmly structured, slowly mounting finish displaying terrific energy. This makes the Le Corton seem a bit common by comparison.
