Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Neal Martin
The 2022 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has a well-defined bouquet with lemon curd, orange pith, walnut and a touch of smoke. The palate is very well-defined with fine acidity and fine weight - not a heavy Corton-Charlemagne. There is fine length here, but I would have liked more mineralité and tension on the finish.
