The 2015 Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru includes around one-third whole bunch fruit this year. Again, the stems are disguised on the nose that is well defined, offering more black fruit than red, an underlying cold stone/mineral edge becoming more apparent as it opens in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin. There is commendable depth here, smooth and velvety in the mouth but that stony element become more apparent on the energetic finish. Give this 4-5 years to mellow and just shave the edge off of those tannins.
