Flowers, candied blackberries, and stones can be found in the nose of the ruby-colored 2002 Corton-Renardes. This ample, broad, medium-bodied wine is sweet, plush, and fruit-forward. Black fruits and spices are found throughout its personality as well as in its long, ripe, pure finish. Drink it between 2007 and 2015.
Note: This estate’s 2002s are not yet released. The above estimate is based on the prices of the 2001s, taking into account that the dollar has significantly dropped.
