My second bottle in a little over two months, it seems better than the first bottle. A little more of everything. Lots of pure apple fruit, nice minerality. Nice concentration and balance, with less prominent alcohol than my first bottle. Very nice glass of wine! — 24 days 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)

A great, reliable French chardonnay that we get when we see it. This one performed well in it's 10th year, with nice body and smooth finish. — 16 days ago
