(from vines on the Pernand side of the hill): Nose dominated by lime and metallic minerality. Flavors of fresh peach, peat and minerals are lifted by a positive touch of greenness. Wonderfully tactile, sweet, almost viscous wine with outstanding dimension: a real essence of liquid stone. The palate-saturating, extremely long finish shows no rough edges. This potentially sensational wine is still a baby. Score: 93 - 96 Stephen Tanzer, Vinous.com 01 September 2016 |

The 2014 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, which is sourced from the Pernand side of the hill, has a precise bouquet with lemon peel, granite and smoky notes, almost Puligny-like in terms of its reserve. The palate is fresh and vibrant with good body, fine tension thanks to that keen line of acidity, with hints of orange peel towards the finish. This is a commendable Corton-Charlemagne in a year where I felt it did not particularly shine. Score: 91 - 93 Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2020-2045 28 April 2016 |
