Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay
From mag. Light and precise. Fresh stone with white flowers, good fine acidity. Long. Not as intense as possible but very good.

Mar 3rd, 2023I was looking forward to this Grand Cru Corton Charlemagne from the 2010 but sadly passed its best and oxidised. It’s a pity that wines like this get dumped upon unsuspecting travellers in airport lounges who have paid a lot for their seat. No rating from me. This was tasted a few days ago in Dubai.

May 24th, 2022Incredible...ripe lemon curd, apple, backbone of acidity and mineral to balance...long finish...hint of oak. Leesy and round...

Jan 25th, 2019Sulfur and white flowers. Punchy fruit with a tang of honey. Very powerful and persistent with good acidity.

Nov 2nd, 2018Exceptional, prefer over the 2012 and 2011 in that order. Very long finish. Chardonnay at its best. The barrel program is perfect. Nice neutral oak influence.

On the nose, rich butter smell, minerality jumps out of the glass, high acid, great structure, long finish

Jun 19th, 2015Whoa! Hit by perfumy, potpourri notes, followed by those orange-clove things you make at Christmas, I could even say a fruitcake (that's been sitting out all day). Much to savor.
