Maurice Gavignet Les Renardes Corton Grand Cru 2021

A classic Burgundy grand vin from a red Grand Cru on the hill of Corton, offering precision and power, with the 2021 vintage adding fresh tension. The nose opens with ripe cherry and cranberry, delicate rose, spice and a hint of damp forest floor. The palate is medium-bodied, with fine limestone minerality and lively acidity; silky, dense tannins frame a long, balanced finish and promise good ageing potential. A short decant brings out the nuances; ideal with game, beef and mushroom dishes.
