Lemon rind aromas green apple, some tropical fruit as I said in January 2019, and a touch of honeysuckle. On the palate rich flavours - some butter and plenty of mineral at 11 years of age. Concentrated and delicious proving its Grand Cru credentials from Corton Charlemagne. This is an excellent GC White Burgundy from a producer better known for its holdings in Chassagne Montrachet.

Petrol on the nose. Would have guessed this was an Alsatian Riesling by the nose. But then it's lemon and herbs in the mouth. Supple and soft but enough acid to last a while. Biggest complaint is the mismatch of the nose to the taste. I think the climat carries this one despite the winemaking.
