The 2016 Corton Rognet Grand Cru was quite feisty and rich on the nose, perhaps missing the same composure as the Corton-Perrières: hints of date infusing the red cherry and kirsch aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with sweet tannin, plump ripe red fruit with good volume, slightly less tension than I would like. This was apparently harvested a little earlier than others, although I might have even have got the vendangeurs out a day earlier? This is one cru where I harbor much fonder memories of the 2015.
