Corton-Charlemagne Chardonnay 2012
So good, but so young. Compared to the other ‘12 white burg it was next to, this showed all the same notes on just a more pronounced/rich scale. More honeyed cashews/pecans here than the other with the lemon notes being more along the lines of lemon pie. Give it time!
Domaine Patrick Javillier
Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay 2012
A great bargain if you can find them
Definitely some citrus/sharp fruit notes here. Not steely or lean, just sharp. Kept going back and forth between soft bruised/rich fruits like peach and pineapple on the mid palate to more lemon/lime zest on the finish. Young.

@Shay A Love this wine. If you haven’t had it before their Cab Franc is terrific
@Arden Barnett : I’ve actually not had their CF, which is a shame since CF is a favorite of mine!
Nice! Rock solid, consistent producer! This must have been after I left. I have several of their CFs @Shay A (09, 10, and 12) so we will have to open one soon!
