Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2010 Corton-Charlemagne pours a straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of green apple, passion fruit, lemon, white flowers, slivered almond and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and slightly buttery. Apparently, this vintage had a reputation for suffering from some premox issues. This bottle was pristine. Based off this example, drink now through 2035.

@delectable this was the Pinot Noir. Very elegant, cherry/raspberry, silky texture, stones, sassafras, earth and great acid.

Our goal is to drink better wine while quarantined - this was a great start with a veal chop and Angelini lemon pasta! Elegance with subtlety - the hint of citrus worked great with this meal (a lot of lemon).
