but as a critic

there is no other climat in Corton that can match it for sheer size

I would argue that it is not as detailed as other vintages

deep and expressive

After a week tasting more than my fair share of rare Esszencia

Serafin Pere et Fils, Gevrey Chambertin Corbeaux other_regions but as a criticThis too is brooding and rather inexpressive just now with somber but ripe berry fruit aromas, game, warm earth and a hint of anise that merge into rich, supple and concentrated flavors that possess more overall depth and power on the chewy and beautifully persistent finish. This is very Gevrey in character with that sort of intense animale element that some 1ers have, particularly Corbeaux. (89 92) 2013+
