Tasting notes
The 2013 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru comes from purchased grapes and for the first time they come entirely from the Aloxe-Corton side. The bouquet is sophisticated and beautifully defined with touches of quince and yellow plum, later white peach. The palate is very well balanced with a taut line of acidity that renders this very linear and direct, quite pointed and penetrating on the finish. This should be intriguing once in bottle.

Made from 2003 onwards. Half from Pernand (high) and half from Aloxe (mid). Picked the same day and blended in the press. Not yet fully ready. Baked-apple nose. Round and less formed with good density underneath. Dense and still tightly coiled. (JR)
