The 2012 Corton Grand Cru Clos des Cortons Faiveley is deep and tightly coiled, unfurling in the glass with aromas of cassis, dark chocolate, grilled squab and coniferous forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, vibrant and concentrated, it’s layered and incisive, with refined tannins, tangy acids and a long, mineral finish. This is one of the finest vintages of the decade for this bottling, and it is still a good handful of years away from maturity.

Varietal Pinot Noir

Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.

Appellation Cote De Beaune

The beautifully and unforgettable French region of Cote De Beaune has been revered throughout the centuries, and recognized as one of the key producer's of the world's finest white wines. The region is highly respected as an excellent producer of Chardonnay wines, and the Chardonnay grapes which grow there, on the southern slopes of the Cote d'Or, are packed full of the unique and powerful characteristics of this very special terroir. Interestingly, Cote De Beaune produces more red wine than white wine, despite its white wines being so famous. The red wines of Cote De Beaune are mainly made from Pinot Noir, but are relatively very light and fruity in their character, perfect for sipping on a warm, sunny day alongside a wide range of foods.

I loved the 2012 Corton Clos des Corton, and this elegant, seamless beauty was brought up in 50% new barrels (but you’d certainly not know that from tasting it). Sweet red (and some black) fruits, forest floor, ample spice, and dried flower notes all flow to a medium-bodied, balanced, layered wine that shines for its balance and length.

Medium red. Musky, expressive, very ripe perfume of redcurrant and dried flowers; a real essence of Burgundy, if more floral than stony on the nose in the early going. Classically dry and unforthcoming but quite suave, with technically low yet somehow penetrating acidity and salty crushed-rock minerality framing the flavors of cherry, raspberry and rose petal. Showing limited flesh today but this very dense wine is still an infant. This very firmly built, imploded wine finishes with strong, slightly dusty tannins and terrific subtle length. The Clos des Cortons produced 37 hectoliters per hectare in 2012, which Jérôme Flous described as "a nice crop for the vintage." (13.7% alcohol; 3.55 pH; 3.35 g/l acidity; 37 h/h)

Initially there is noticeable reduction but I found with relatively aggressive swirling that it largely dissipated to reveal notes of both red and dark currant, pungent earth and plenty of that gamy sauvage character. There is exceptionally good richness and volume to the big-bodied and impressively concentrated flavors that coat the palate with dry extract that does a reasonably good job of buffering the firmly tannic but not hard or even unduly austere finish. Even so, this is still at least 5 years away from being approachable and will need 15 plus to become adequately civilized.

Plenty of resinous oak coats this red, leaving a veneer on the cherry and berry flavors. Compact, with a layer of dusty tannins on the finish. With air, the oak subsides, revealing pretty cherry, floral and spice notes, making this more elegant. Best from 2019 through 2033. 1,315 cases made, 280 cases imported.

Winery Notes

Ruby red in colour with clear purple reflections. The nose is powerful, concentrated and exudes notes of black cherry and spice. The palate is rich and smooth with good energy and concentration. The finish is elegant. An excellent wine for cellar ageing. Serve with: Seared foie gras with armagnac, game, quail, full-flavoured cheeses such as Cîteaux or Reblochon.
