hail and bombe d'acqua

An airy red pinot fruit nose nuanced by a lovely mix of game

This a huge wine with incredible density and power where the abundant dry extract coats the palate and

with a peppery nuance adding bite and a sexy floral note building in the glass

Here the nose is more deeply pitched with notes of earth

de Montille, Corton Clos Roi Vintage:2017 hail and bombe d'acquaHere the nose is more deeply pitched with notes of earth, game, smoke and underbrush adding interest to the briar and red berry fruit aromas that lead to serious, brooding and reserved big bodied flavors that are underpinned by firm but not aggressive tannins and excellent length. There is slightly more depth here than in the Pougets though its less fine as well. A stylistic choice. (91 93) 2017+
