Winemaker Notes
Round with a pungent bouquet of grilled almonds and vanilla. Nice fullness in the mouth with integrated oak and a long, mineral finish. Even if it is a flattering wine quite young, it deserves a few years of cellaring to reach its peak.
Professional Ratings
98 James Suckling
Such a classic Corton Charlemagne! Stunningly concentrated and powerful, but also so graceful. Very racy at the long finish, which has so much mineral freshness. Takes your breath away! Drink or hold.
95 Wine Enthusiast
Concentrated but polished, deep but silky, this quietly powerful wine integrates velvety tannins and gorgeous black-fruit flavors. Made from old vines on a three-acre plot, the wine offers an inviting blend of black cherries and black currant, spearmint, cedar and dark chocolate that are delicious now, but will gain complexity and expand with time.
94 Wine Spectator
A broad and lush white, with flavors of peach, lemon oil, sweet corn and spiced apple married to a texture verging on oily. Lively, with acidity keeping this well-defined and long on the finish.
93 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is also quite promising, exhibiting aromas of pear, buttered citrus fruit, honeycomb, toasted almonds and white flowers. Full-bodied, satiny and rich, with a fleshy core of fruit and good underlying freshness, I hope it can repeat this fine performance from bottle.
