camphor and incense

This is lighter in style but the purity of expression is really lovely

and I suspect that its origin in the crème de la crème of Roederer's Cristal-worthy holdings has even more to do with the extra dimension it possesses above and beyond its white counterpart than the delicate infusion of Pinot Noir phenolics that give it its delicate pink hue

but it has all the qualities to develop into a truly special wine

although it naturally does not offer the finesse or nuance of the very best years

Pousse d'Or, Corton Clos Roi Size:12x750ml camphor and incenseAs is typically the case, this is earthier and much more sauvage than the Bressandes though it retains good freshness and pinot noir character. The nose speaks primarily of plum and floral aromas that are in keeping with the sappy, rich, powerful and broad shouldered flavors that drench the palate with dry extract on the very firmly structured and hugely long finish. This should be a great wine in time. 95 2027+
