Parker about Château Corton Grancey Grand Cru 2020
Rich and round, the 2020 Château Corton-Grancey Grand Cru is a full-bodied, ample and layered wine evocative of raspberries, cherries, sweet spices, peonies and dark chocolate. Built around sweet, powdery tannins, a touch of subtle back-end warmth bears the signature of the hot, dry growing season.

Suckling over Château Corton Grancey Grand Cru 2020
Complex meaty and spicy nose. This effortlessly marries the wild and refined sides of this Grand Cru! The fruit character stands on a mighty tower of tannins that are at once fine and slightly herbal. What an amazingly energetic finish! Drink or hold.
