Domaine de la Pousse d'Or Domaine de la Pousse d'Or Corton 'Clos du Roi' 2012

"The 2012 Corton Clos du Roi boasts striking inner perfume and layers of expressive dark fruit, all supported by incisive, yet beautifully integrated tannins. Today the Clos du Roi s understandably tightly wound, but it is a jewel of a wine in the making. Readers need to be very patient here." 94-96pts ANTONIO GALLONI, www.vinous.com

"A more deeply pitched and overtly sauvage nose displays notes of iron-infused earth along with ripe and fresh dark currant and cassis aromas. There is excellent size, weight, power and concentration to the big-bodied flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the intensely mineral-infused finish where a touch of wood surfaces. This is a substantial wine even by the outsized standards of a fine Clos du Roi." 92pts BURGHOUND
