Note di degustazione
The 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru reflects all the sunshine of the growing season. Full-bodied, rich and glossy, with a sweet core of fruit and broad shoulders, its bouquet evokes peaches, buttery pastry, golden orchard fruit, baking spices and vanilla pod. This will appeal to readers who gravitate toward richer, more extrovert styles of white Burgundy.

A very cool and tight Corton Charlemagne with the intense spice, bold structure and steeliness that we expect from this appellation. Staggering concentration, which at this early stage makes the wine slightly austere, but all this gives it great aging potential. Fantastic integration of oak, fruit and mineral acidity at the amazing finish. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.
Cask sample. This absolutely stood out among the white wines. I tried the 2019 and 2020 Corton-Charlemagne. Both were good but the 2020 has much more about it. Complex, nutty, focused acidity. All the components are there but this needs time to properly mesh. Will be memorable. (AWH)
