Very classy Charlemagne. Ripe but still very elegant. Oak in check.

01' Bonneau du Martray Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay. Color- Light golden. By looking at it, I would've never guessed it's 16 years old. BIG Nose...Green apple, floral. Palate...stone fruits, melon, peach & pineapple. A slight bit of creamy notes on the front & mid palate. A light backbone of acidity. Stone fruits minerality & soft pineapple carry through to a nice finish. Drinking at it peak now. @Ron R Thank you for this simply amazing bottle. Can't wait to tip a glass with you soon. Cheers to you and Anne-Marie!

Big, curvy but she still had se tension. It's like we both knew how the evening would end but we still wanted to act out the chase

Really fresh, not the slightest bit tired nor showing any exotic fruits. A great example.

18/20 (95/100) Вино со сложным и насыщенным букетом ароматов цветов акации, лимонов, яблок, мёда и бриоши. Тельное с высокой кислотностью. Великолепно!
