Lot #167. Camille Giroud Corton Le Clos du Roi 2006

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 92+ ST.
"Deep red-ruby; darker. Wild, musky nose offers blackberry and menthol; less open today than the Charmes-Chambertin. Then large-scaled and classically structured, with a serious tannic spine supporting the black cherry and licorice flavors. Compared to the Charmes-Chambertin, this is quite clenched today. Finishes with cool notes of licorice and menthol. Clearly lower in pH and volatile acidity than the Charmes; in fact, this almost tastes like a wine from another vintage." Vinous, Mar 2009
Provenance: The Courchevel Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $60
