Corton Grand Cru - Domaine Clos Pavelot
I am currently reading the book by Jonathan Nossiter - The taste and power. That's fine. I do not really with some of the ideas he develops. It also develops, I think, not enough. I will say no more, not here.
In any case, the book paints a beautiful portrait of Lavinia store. And it's been a while since I myself am not rendering. Completely under the influence of the book, I decided to spend one night coming home from work. I do not even turn in the rays of Bordeaux (completely under control I tell you!). Burgundy and dark to make my choice. The seller is not very warm. I think it moved. I will say no more, not here. Released him, I take my time and decide my choice. So what wine I'll try to tell.

The dress is beautiful, bright and cherry.
The nose of great finesse and complexity of a left charge that gives it a smoky character. I note with beautiful aromas of strawberry lovers. It's beautiful. It is a wine that is breathed dozens of times, but were afraid to drink until several minutes. And fragrances that permeate deep into the nose. In the mouth it
silky tannins are present but mild. What subtlety! mixed together in a very quiet strength earth (Local?). The acidity is perfect. It gives the wine a beautiful long strawberry, licorice: it is right.
The empty mouth, the flavors go gradually. Then they reappear seconds later with breathing. They persist, it will fill you. It's very, very beautiful.
Caramba!
LGDD's note for this wine: 18/20.
And of course, your comments are always welcome.
