The 2017 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is herbaceous and not quite as delineated on the nose as its peers. The palate has a spicy entry and fine acidity, but it feels a bit mean considering the vineyard, and it misses a little weight and fruit concentration on the finish. Not bad, but could have been better. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune. (Neal Martin, Vinous, August 2021)
