1992 Bouchard Père et Fils Le Corton

By on December 31, 2002 #asides

Still deeply coloured for a burgundy, ruby with a hint of brick at the rim. The nose is very wide with sweet dried vine fruit and leather notes lower down. The palate is sweet and silky with still good acidity and grippy tannins, though not a bit rustic. Fruit has excellent density and is predominantly black. Length is on the long side of medium, with just a hint of creaminess. I’m sure I’ve not tried a better 1992, really top class and drinking beautifully now, but don’t wait as 2 hours after opening it gets a bit thin.
