Tasting Notes

Warning: this incredible white Burgundy can leave you speechless. Appraised blind, everyone fortunate enough to have a glass of this Corton-Charlemagne in front of them, recognized its greatness. The bouquet is imbued with spine-tingling mineralite and a shimmering tension that is impossible to encapsulate in words. It just leaves you with a huge smile on your face. The palate neatly interlocks with the aromatics, that mineral tension just leaving you breathless with admiration. This is not a case of a kaleidoscope of flavors queuing to have their say, rather a masterclass in precision, nuance, texture and bewitching harmony. This is spellbinding in every way and if you have a bottle in your cellar, then God must have smiled upon you. Tasted August 2013.
