"The Corton-Clos du Roi has redder fruits than the Bressandes. There’s finesse here, good length, and less power than the Bressandes." Fine Wine Review
"Significant dense purple colour, with an impressive weight of fruit too on the nose, a savoury darker fruit which is very enticing. There is a fine coating of velvet on the palate too, a little bit of dense black cherry enlivened by a raspberry essence. Not too massive, not too tannic, yet very persistent." Jasper Morris
"The 2017 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru has a seductive, floral nose that is more Côte de Nuits than Beaune, with copious red cherries, raspberry and rose petal aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, the oak a little more pronounced than the Corton-Bressandes but that will integrate during the remainder of the barrel maturation and there is a welcome white pepper/red peppercorn sensation that pops up on the aftertaste. Very promising." Vinous
