The 2020 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru marks the swan song vintage for this cuvée, which will likely be replanted to Chardonnay. Offering up aromas of sweet red berries, orange zest and rose petals, it's medium to full-bodied, supple and fine-boned, with racy acids and a saline finish.

The 2019 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru unwinds in the glass with scents of spices plums, wild berries, sweet soil tones, confit citrus and burning embers. Medium to full-bodied, bright and lively, with a concentrated core of fruit, fine tannins and a mineral finish, this is a very elegant rendition of this cuvée, and it's built to evolve gracefully in the cellar.

The 2018 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru is showing well, wafting from the glass with aromas of red berries, cherries, orange rind, espresso roast and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and textural, this is ripe but succulent, underpinned by lively acids and fine-grained tannins. This is the more open of Rapet's two Corton bottlings and will offer the broader drinking window.

Aromas of sweet red cherries, dried flowers and spices introduce the 2017 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru, a medium to full-bodied, ample wine with a cool core of succulent fruit that largely conceals its fine, chalky tannins, concluding with a moderately long finish. While it isn't the finest Pougets that Rapet has produced, it's a very creditable effort.

The 2012 Corton Grand Cru Pougets has a harmonious bouquet with raspberry and wild strawberry scents with candied orange peel emerging with aeration. The palate is showing some hardness on the entry, a little tough and leathery, although there is adequate weight on the finish. It just needs to show more finesse, so I would afford it another 12 months in bottle.
