"Though delicate, with red fruit flavors of strawberry, cherry and currant, plus floral, vegetal and spice notes, this is intense and focused. A firm underpinning of acidity, tannins and stone lend austerity now, but this should have the ability to age. Best from 2023 through 2040." Bruce Sanderson Wine Spectator 95 points Drink 2022-40

The 2017 Aloxe-Corton Les Vercots 1er Cru comes from relatively young vines, half 12 years old and the other half debuting with their third leaf. There is a slight reduction on the nose, along with oaky red berry fruit (50% new wood) that will need time to be fully subsumed. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth texture and fine tannin, and the wood is simpatico with the fruit. I like the grip of this Les Vercots and the tang of orange peel and marmalade that complements the red fruit on the finish. Excellent.
