Corton Charlemagne, Grand Cru, 2017
A larger-scale wine than the Premiers Crus. Sumptuous and full with a pliable minerality adding some spark to the buttery, mirabelle, honeysuckle and peach fruit that finishes with a sweet spice twist. Sensual and flavoursome, profound but energetic with it. This is from a small parcel of 0.29 ha in “Le Charlemagne” that was planted in 1940, facing south-west. The soils here are marney limestone, shallow and with a stony top soil.
critic reviews
The 2017 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is herbaceous and not quite as delineated on the nose as its peers. The palate has a spicy entry and fine acidity, but it feels a bit mean considering the vineyard, and it misses a little weight and fruit concentration on the finish. Not bad, but could have been better. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune.
