Loads of sulfur and drive and energy. A blast of gunpowder, then lemon and a long Technicolor finish with great acidity. Years ahead

Very potent corton charlemagne. The wine is tannic with a lot of structure. Wet stones, stone fruit with great mineral Ity, keeps on changing and amplifying. Would benefit from a couple more years of cellaring. Magnificent effort from bought grapes.

Lemon oil, wet stone, white flowers, a hint of honey. A long finish with noticeable but integrated oak. Rounded and polished. Long. Very good.

Very structured and muscular. A touch advanced with butterscotch notes not integrated. Lacking in length and complexity but still interesting.

Light gold color, youthful. Enticing nose. Notes of lemon and citrus, river stones, tan spice, some ginger and wet clay. Nice mouth feel. Great length. A powerhouse.

Typical Boillot, massive wood and super rich. At this time you are drinking an oak tree and with great difficulty there is some corton charlemagne. Is the oak ever going to give room for the cc to appear ?

En magnum! Pretty hard not to love this beauty. It could be nothing other than corton Charlemagne. I couldn’t get enough of this wine. Loved it!

Light to medium gold in color. Youthful in the glass and nose. Notes of Meyer lemon, lime blossoms, tan spice, gravel, some petrol, some vanilla, some wet river stone and a little ginger. Rich and powerful in the mouth. Long finish. Lots of fruit and acidity. There’s a whole lot going on with this juice. Hit a home run tonight.
