Pousse d'Or, Corton Clos Roi other_regions_italy lively and taut with loads

lively and taut with loads of earthy/savory layers and great length

blackberry pie and blueberry compote with notions of Chinese five spice

it's thick and unctuous on the palate

which is quite favorable for ageworthy wines

Pousse d'Or, Corton Clos Roi other_regions_italy lively and taut with loadsAs 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+
