Domaine d’Ardhuy Clos du Roi Corton Grand Cru 2018

Very generous wood and menthol characters suffuse the spicy and markedly jammy liqueur-like dark berry fruit aromas. There is fine richness, power and concentration to the very firmly structured and long if slightly warm finish. This is particular in that it’s very ripe and while it’s a perfectly good effort, I can’t say it appeals to me stylistically. Drink: 2035+. Score – 89-92. (Allen Meadows, burghound.com, Jan. 10, 2020)
