2018 Doudet-Naudin Corton Les Chaumes Grand Cru
Tasting Notes
Dark garnet with inky depth. The nose layers black plum, cassis, and dried violet over hints of cedar and warm earth. Concentrated on the palate yet balanced, delivering ripe dark fruit, firm but polished tannins, and lively acidity. Undertones of graphite and spice surface mid‑palate, leading to a long, savory finish with lingering mineral grip.
