Domaine Denis Père et Fils
Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay
Brilliant in its clarity and definition, this youngster shows great focus of fruit and defined minerality, framed by nicely handled, toasty oak. Made to be enjoyed young, but better in 2020.

Dec 8th, 2020Pure, precise and clean - chalky minerality with apples, stone fruits, and just a hint of vanilla and flowers. Excellent persistent finish. The oak is very subtle here. Quite light-bodied for a burgundy from Beaune, drinks more like a Chablis but excellent.
