Bouchard Pere et Fils Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru
Vintage: | 2021 |
---|---|
Description: | The parcel that Bouchard owns is 300 meters high, which is rather high for Corton and has a SE exposure, the wines from this parcel are more powerful. (95 Points) Lemony and bright, this wine exemplifies the virtues of whites of the 2021 vintage. The initial impression is citrus peel, but there is a nectarine sweetness, some richer apricot notes, a salty mineral overlay, and some lovely floral notes. The wine has plenty of structure and length, but the freshness is well-balanced with the impressive level of extract. This wine will be better after a few years in the bottle and should age for decades. Bouchard's four-hectare plot in thin white marl soils at the top of the hill consistently delivers grapes of concentration and bracing tension. Decanter. |
