A blend based on Aloxe-Corton climat Les Languettes, complemented by some 20% fruit from Pernand-Vergelesses, Colin's 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru was bought as grapes and pressed in house. Revealing aromas of pear, orange oil, freshly baked bread, beeswax and smoke, along with a delicate top note of petrol, it's full-bodied, ample and concentrated, with a charming, fleshy profile, lively acids and a long, saline finish.
Cask sample. Intensely mineral and taught; might have been even more impressed by this if I’d tasted it before the Chevalier. (MH)
Two suppliers. Fresh lemon yellow, the nose is completely changed after Meursault Perrières above. Heady and delicious yet also very well poised, quite a smoothness of fruit layering over the stones, but they are certainly there. Just the flesh is currently taking the upper hand. Very long, this will work well. Tasted: October 2021
