This 2020 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru from Domaine de Montille, made from 100% Pinot Noir, promises a complex and evolving experience. On the nose, expect rich aromas of red and black cherries, wild raspberries, and blackberry, intertwined with earthy notes of forest floor, truffle, and a hint of mushroom. Subtle spice (clove, cinnamon) from careful oak aging, along with floral hints of violet, should also be present. The palate will be medium to full-bodied, showcasing concentrated fruit flavors balanced by firm, yet silky tannins and vibrant acidity. A mineral backbone underscores the wine’s structure, leading to a long, persistent, and elegant finish with savory undertones.
