Corton Grand Cru Joseph Drouhin 1978
The wine
Drouhin's Corton Grand Cru comes from the mountain of Corton, north of Beaune, on very well-drained pebbly clay soil. The powerful nose exudes notes of candied fruit, followed by spices and musk. This wine has a richness that balances out its fairly well-structured tannins, and has excellent aging potential.
