2017 Corton Charlemagne

The 2017 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru comes from vines planted in the 1940s in Les Longuettes and comprises just two barrels. There is a slight reduction on the nose that makes it difficult to read at the moment. The palate is very promising with a fine bead of acidity, good concentration, a slightly waxy texture and a persistent, brioche -tinged finish. One to watch.
