Deep red with ruby tones. Sappy, perfumed nose offers cherry, white pepper, crushed stone, mint and menthol. Wonderfully velvety in the mouth, but with superb energy and definition to the pungent mineral and fresh raspberry flavors. Boasts a three-dimensional texture and great sweetness. Peppery acidity and uncanny soil complexity stain the palate on the finish, which features outstanding finesse of tannins. A worthy successor to the great 2009. 94-97 points

"2010 Corton-Clos des Cortons Faiveley: A brooding, deep and introverted nose grudgingly gives up notes of cassis, earth,
wood and a hint of animale. The intense, brawny and imposingly structured flavors possess superb volume and almost
breathtaking power on the explosive and mouth coating finish that is of monumental proportions. This is a classic Corton yet
consistent with the style of the 2010 vintage, this is not unduly rustic, indeed the tannins, while firm, are actually relatively
refined. A knock out by any standard but at the same time, a wine for the genuinely patient. (94-96)/2030+
