Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru 2018 is a fine wine from Burgundy produced by Georges Roumier. A white wine made from 100% Chardonnay grapes sourced from the renowned Grand Cru Charlemagne vineyard, it is an outstanding example of the range from the Domaine, considered to be among the most prestigious winemakers in Burgundy.
Like all of its wines, this Corton Charlemagne enjoys a rich and pleasant fruitiness in its youth, which in time will be enriched with tertiary hints, given the wine's incredible predisposition for ageing.
Bright straw yellow in colour, it expresses an intense bouquet of yellow fruit such as apricot, lime blossom and notes of baked bread and brioche. The sip is well-balanced, with the typical fatness that is associated with this Grand Cru, but a lovely, lively freshness, with a long finish of citrus and fruit.
