Score 91+/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Sep 2012

Pale, green-tinged yellow. Subdued nose hints at ginger and nutmeg. Dense, pliant and sweet, in a distinctly ripe style, but with excellent supporting acidity. Shows an old-vines creaminess and a tactile, somewhat tannic finish. This was bottled just a few weeks prior to my visit and needs at least a few years in bottle to sort itself out.

(from south-facing vines in Le Charlemagne): Bright yellow with green highlights. Vibrant aromas of lime, clove, crushed stone and flowers. Dense and fat but at the same time powerful, with lovely citrussy acidity giving shape to the fresh apricot and stone flavors. Too ripe on the end for really classic Corton-Charlemagne, but the finish pleases with its fresh apricot and peach fruit.
