Corton Rouge, Domaine Tollot-Beaut 2021

This too is aromatically quite cool and notably more restrained with more sauvage influence to the darker aromas of plum, black cherry and plenty of pungent earth wisps. There is excellent density to the big-bodied, powerful and tautly muscular flavors that coat the palate with sappy dry extract that also buffers the very firm tannic spine shaping the dusty, serious and sneaky long finish. This is certainly built-to-age but it's not so imposing that it couldn't reasonably be enjoyed after 5 to 7 years. (Drink starting 2033)
