The 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has a flamboyant bouquet with yellow fruit, lemon curd, pressed white flowers and a touch of banana skin. It has fine delineation. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity, quite saline and spicier than its peers. It tapers in slightly towards the finish, yet there is delicate tension, with that dash of lemongrass on the finish prolonging the aftertaste. Excellent. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

The 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru comes from the climat of Les Longuettes. It is strangely quite muted on the nose, certainly more than the Bâtard-Montrachet. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, taut and fresh with a bright, quite saline finish that feels quite linear. Maybe I just wanted more tension and mineralité here? Give me more, please. Closure: Diam
