Note di degustazione
The 2021 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has some reduction on the nose, although transferring between glasses alleviates some of that, revealing a slightly petrolly character. The palate is fresh on the entry but sags in the middle and lacks the same personality or sense of terroir expression as its peers. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Cask sample. Quite marked struck-match nose – unusual nowadays! Fun with lots of tension but fully ripe fruit too. Chalky, textured finish. I'd never turn this down … but I wouldn't buy it. (JR)
The 2021 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru comprises just one-third as much fruit as in 2022 and demanded twice as many treatments. It is just missing a bit of presence on the nose, with hints of white flowers and honeysuckle. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, orange pith and hints of white peach and touches of white tea towards a very elegant finish. Hopefully, the aromatics will awaken by the time of bottling.
