"Very quiet, shy perfume, some cedar, sandalwood and nougat, lash of baked apple, blossoms and light honey. Juiciness in texture, and intensity/concentration, flint-tinged minerality and a lick of stony dry/sourrness through the finish. Great presence in palate, length and depth. Feels special to taste"
The Wine Front, 7 July 2014


Neal Martin 93-95 Points!
"The 2012 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru comes exclusively from the Pernand-Vergelesses side. It has a very seductive but serious bouquet with suggestions of flint and smoke emerging with time. It is very intense but broody at the same time. The palate is very well-balanced with lovely white peach, quince and spice notes that are succinctly integrated with the new oak that lingers long in the mouth. What a lovely Corton-Charlemagne " grab one as there is a solitary barrel of 2013!"
