Score 91/100 · Drink 2026-2040, Neal Martin, May 2024
The 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has an attractive bouquet with white peach, wilted white flowers, and touches of jasmine and broom. It shows fine delineation and presence, gaining intensity in the glass. The palate is well-defined, with a twist of bitter lemon on the entry. It feels a bit "hemmed in" for a Corton-Charlemagne, and I am looking for a little more fatness on the mid-palate. Resolutely linear with a strict finish, I find quality here stacked in the aromatics rather than the palate. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.
