Note di degustazione
Pale, bright yellow. Yellow fruits and spices on the nose. A step up in ripeness, richness and sweetness from the more laidback Bienvenues-Bâtard, this mouthfilling grand cru captures the sheer volume of the vintage. Plush, smooth orchard and stone fruit flavors display a bit of alcoholic warmth but are given definition by underlying minerality. Finishes with a fine dusting of tannins and considerable length. This Bâtard will need a few years to burn off some of its baby fat.

Pale greenish-yellow color. Precise aromas of yellow fruits, spearmint and white flowers, with nicely integrated oak tones. Broader and more powerful in the mouth than the Bienvenues, showing better integration of oak. The yellow fruit flavors carry through to a more phenolic, distinctly tongue-dusting finish. Some unabsorbed CO2 gives this wine a firm edge. (The young Corton-Charlemagne, from fruit picked at the end of the harvest, boasts terrific depth of flavor and mineral richness but was hard to taste owing to its remaining malic acidity.)
