A spicy and notably ripe nose flashes notes of violet and liqueur-like black cherry aromas. The rich, round and delicious medium weight flavors possess fine density if not much refinement on the attractively complex and sneaky long finish. This well-made effort should be approachable after only a few years yet reward up to a decade of cellaring.

Decanter
Maréchaudes is from the bottom of the hill of Corton, below Bressandes, and tends to produce more accessible, fruit-driven wines. It was vinified with more than 50 whole cluster fruit this year, which lends pleasant floral lift to a complex bouquet of wild berries, plum and potpourri. On the palate the wine is silky, multidimensional and full-bodied, with excellent amplitude and depth, and a penetrating, sapid, almost saline finish. This seems quite open-knit this year despite its evident seriousness - it's a vintage to drink before the domaine’s brooding but profound 2015 comes around.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Bursting with aromas of dark berries, blood orange, rich soil and sapid nuances, the 2016 Corton Les Maréchaudes Grand Cru is full-bodied, satiny and layered, with a deep core of fruit, chalky structuring tannins and a somewhat chunky profile that reflects its situation at the bottom of the hill of Corton's grand cru sector.
