Good bright dark red. Perfumed, profound aromas and flavors of red cherry, rose oil, minerals and crushed stone, with darker berries emerging with air. Like liquid velvet on the palate--lush dense and incredibly fine-grained. Most impressive today on the extraordinary expanding, palate-staining finish, which rises to a crescendo of spices and minerals. A wine of great thrust and chewiness, this is hard to scrape off the palate. An essence of Corton grand cru.

Transcendental 2009 Joseph Faiveley Corton-Clos

The hallmark Pinot Noir aromas of red cherry and minerals project an unexpectedly penetrating length.
Unparalleled delineation of fruit flavors and minerals - like actors in a well-rehearsed play, they make timely appearances, then remain distinct and recognizable till the end.
The best red I have been fortunate enough to taste.
