Domaine Bonneau du Martray Corton Rouge Grand Cru 2017 preservative free seamlessly melding into a velvetyThe 2017 Corton Grand Cru is showing beautifully from bottle, wafting from the glass with aromas of licorice, blackberries, dried flowers, anise and rich soil tones. On the palate, it's medium to full bodied, supple and lively, with good depth at the core, racy acids and an elegantly chalky finish. Finer boned than the more muscular, textural 2018, this is an elegant middle weight that already reflects the team's efforts to improve their red wines.
