Score 91/100 · Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Dec 2013

Bottled in spring 2013, the 2011 Corton Grand Cru has an airy bouquet that is quite deceptive. Give it modest aeration and it unveils a hidden fruit intensity - raspberry and strawberry leaf, a slightly sauvage element to the aromatics. The palate is medium-bodied with a very zesty, inviting entry. There is a meatiness to the fruit, irony almost, with superb definition and focus toward the finish. This has real character. This is a very accomplished Corton Rouge and a worthy follow-up to the outstanding 2010. Time to fill in a small gap of notes relating to the most significant grower in the Corton hill - Bonneau du Martray. Jean-Charles suggested we taste recent vintages together after the 2012s, which I was more than happy to do.

One-third new oak. Racked in September. Bright cherry red. Frank, intriguing red-fruit aromas and then very notable acidity and fine tannins on the palate. Then some bitterness. Could definitely do with a bit more flesh. Harsh and unfriendly. (JR)
