Cherries and raspberries, long finish. Still a lot of tannins at the end — 4 months ago
Deep ruby in color; graphite, cherries, and bell pepper on the nose; medium acidity, medium tannins; tastes like raspberries, cranberries, and crushed gravel with a long finish. Nellie, Brian, Jen, Ray,and Christy like it. I do too. — 6 months ago

The 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru doesn't possess the delineation and panache of Tollot-Beaut's on the nose at first, though it coheres nicely with aeration. Peach skin, linseed and wilted white flowers eventually come through. The palate is well-balanced with a viscous entry, a little more honeyed in style than previous wines in this flight of Corton-Charlemagne, though it deserves applause for the precision and detail on the finish. It needs a little more time in the bottle compared to others because there is a lot of coconut-ty new oak. My score is based on this being assimilated with bottle age. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (Neal Martin, Vinous, July 2024)

Our first and go to French chardonnay. Different enough from California, but not spare as they can be. — 2 months ago
Tough Hermitage competition last night and it ranked slightly behind top producers JL Chave and Jaboulet (La Chapelle). Not quite as long and explosive, but who’s to complain — 8 months ago
