Score 93/100 · Drink 2014, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Sep 2011

The 2009 Corton-Charlemagne impresses for its balance and finesse. This is a decidedly elegant style of Corton Charlemagne endowed with striking inner perfume and silky fruit. Clean saline notes give the finish a sense of tension that is quite striking as it contrasts some of the riper elements in the wine. I especially like the coolness and minerality here.

Anticipated maturity: 2014+. Is there anything Bruno Clair doesn’t do well? Clair is best known for his sublime reds among Burgundy aficionados, but his whites (and the Marsannay rose) are equally deserving of attention.
