Revisited from bottle, the 2018 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru wafts from the glass with notes of peonies and orange rind mingled with rich berry fruit and carnal hints of smoked meats and fresh leather that weren't apparent during élevage. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, with powdery tannins, succulent acids and a generous core of fruit, it's a pretty, structurally elegant wine that's just a touch more aromatically rustic than I remember it.
