Tasted blind at the annual "Burgfest" tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Corton Grand Cru from Domaine Tollot-Beaut has a well-defined nose with cranberry and redcurrant scents, just a slight metallic note loitering in the wings, but that does not deprive it of elegance or refinement. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, crisp and refined with well-judged acidity and a pure finish. It might lack substance, but there is a lovely swagger about this Corton.
