This was special. Beautiful golden color in the glass. Popcorn kernels and toast. Seamless oak integration. Rich but soft elegance. Unreal with seared scallops and crab cakes.

Young wine but a strong showing. Not really strutting yet but there's a whole bunch to like. Very reticent nose, but with warmth it showed creamy stone fruits and a round finish.

Oak is disjointed at this point and lacking a little mid palate richness.

Rich and full but very sound. Looks amazing. So full and lively. Long and strong. Seriously good wine.

This vintage of this wine is austere and lacking the richness of palate and flavor that I expect in Corton-Charlemagne.
