For roasted pork fillet with roast potatoes and steamed mixed veggies, I
opened a 2009 Bouchard P.et F. Corton GC, 14%abv.
Hugh Johnson writes that the Corton GC is far too large and few
vineyards deserve the category for weight and structure, the rest being
softer reds. This bottle certainly proved it. It was very light with
barely any PN character and really merited an anonymous, Bourgogne
classification. This was a great disappointment given the price. I would
imagine Dale would give this a B- at best.
