Derived mostly from Renardes this year, the 2017 Corton Grand Cru is a definite success, offering up aromas of cassis, spicy soil, grilled meat and dark chocolate. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and incisive, with good depth at the core, fine but firm structuring tannins and a long finish.

The medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Corton has a wonderful nose packed with dense layers of assorted red fruits. Medium-bodied, rich, and sweet, it reveals candied cherries, raspberries, and blueberries in its medium-bodied, velvety-textured character. This is a lovely, powerful, concentrated wine with outstanding depth of fruit and a long, supple, jammy raspberry-packed finish. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2011.
