Corton Clos du Roi Pousse d`Or 2005 is a Grand Cru red Burgundy from the Côte de Beaune. The nose reveals layers of dark berry fruit, intermingled with notes of licorice and subtle spice, indicative of its age. The palate showcases a robust structure, marked by ripe tannins that offer both firmness and integrity. Flavours of blackcurrant and fig unfold, complemented by hints of earthiness. This wine embodies the depth expected from Corton, yet maintains a level of refinement, making it suitable for extended cellaring. Pousse d`Or was founded by the renowned Burgundy vigneron Michel Lafarge.

Vinous
Bright ruby-red. Knockout nose offers wild dark fruits, smoke, licorice and pepper. Dense on entry, then sweet and highly concentrated if youthfully reticent in the middle. Young and quite primary but possesses explosive fruit. The classy finish features broad, thoroughly buffered tannins and superb rising length and sweetness. This one should reward a decade of cellaring and may eventually merit an even higher rating.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2008
