Note di degustazione
The 2015 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has a straightforward lime flower and orange blossom bouquet with fine delineation, although I would have liked more terroir expression. The palate is smooth and waxy in texture, with a fine bead of acidity, and more phenolic than the nose implies. revealing a subtle tang of spice on the finish. It finishes with more aplomb than I anticipated and does seem to improve in the glass. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (DIAM 10 closure)

A very flinty, stony and minerally edge with white peaches and yellow citrus fruits,leading to a palate with a very powerful, dense and rich core of white peaches. Very long, phenolic drive. Impressive. Drink or hold until 2025.
Pale, bright yellow. Pungent aromas of lemon drop, white peach, nutmeg, talc and flint. Powerful, ripe, concentrated Corton-Charlemagne with a strong menthol quality and complicating savory minerality to its citrus and floral flavors. Boasts considerable body and palate presence for young Corton-Charlemagne (the label says 14%) and the dusty finish displays excellent mounting length. A bit youthfully aggressive, though, and in need of bottle aging. This is very good for the year but is clearly a 2015 in its thickness of texture and power.
