brambly red fruit

I would not be surprised if this is a less than perfect example

This isn’t quite as complex but there is even better length

nicely textured

Philippe Pacalet, Aloxe Corton 1er Cru Vintage:2017 brambly red fruit(mostly from Valozires). Once again there are plenty of floral characteristics adding a touch of elegance to the otherwise distinctly earthy and gamy aromas of dark currant and plum. The robust and muscular broadshouldered flavors possess a lovely mid palate texture that contrasts somewhat with the rustic, serious and built to age finish. This is quite good but a wine for those who can buy and forget they own it. (90 92) 2029+
