another reason to LOVE the 2022 vintage from Burgundy ~ @domaineberthelemot might have bottled the clearest looking and cleanest tasting Corton Charlemagne I’ve encountered ~ it has richer notes of honeysuckle, biscuit & a hint of vanillin, but it blossoms w lime, kiwi, peach, apricot and the faintest crushed stone sensation towards the finish ~ this is a “bring to the beach bottle” or “poolside w a seafood soirée sipper!” — 7 days ago

A soft perfume of honeysuckle, citronella and hazelnut with touches of lemon pledge, lime zest and baked apple - juicy flesh flavors of yellow plum and quince were followed by lip smacking citric acidity, candied ginger, slight minerality and a whisper of toasty oak spice — 2 months ago

brambly dark berries, potpourri, soft licorice, eucalyptus & graphite ~ crunchy red berry fruit, blood orange, dried herbs & tobacco ~ very approachable yet should mature a few and age a bit — 2 months ago
