(WA92-94 points) The 2014 Corton Grèves Grand Cru, which Frédéric Barnier told me was one of very few that reached full yield this year since it was not touched by hail, has a slight metallic note from a little reduction on the nose, although there appears to be plenty of red berry fruit underneath. The palate is well balanced with supple ripe tannin, crisp red cherry and raspberry notes, a gentle fanning out towards the finish that caresses this mouth. This should become a very winsome Corton Grèves -- lovely! - Neal Martin

(BH90-93 points) An attractively layered and slightly higher-toned nose offers up notes of red cherry, pomegranate, earth, game, oak and menthol. There is excellent volume and concentration to the broad-shouldered flavors that brim with mouth coating dry extract before concluding in an overtly rustic and austere finish of excellent persistence. This is a classic Corton of power, muscle and fine balance but again be aware that this is clearly going to need time.
