"The 2015 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is very fine, offering up notes of preserved citrus, white peach, toasted nuts and petrol. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, concentrated and powerful, with a deep core and serious structural musculature, juicy acids, and a long, chewy finish. This is notably deeper and more complete than it showed from barrel in the fall of 2016, which seems to confirm Pierre-Yves’s observation that in his experience Corton-Charlemagne is one of the wines that benefits most from long elevage."
Anticipated maturity: 2022-2040
Bright yellow. Discreet aromas of lemon cake icing and crushed stone are complicated by menthol and smoky, spicy oak. Compellingly thick and seamless but quite backward, even a bit youthfully aggressive, showing penetrating acidity, a smoky element and noteworthy mineral-driven energy. A superbly ripe vintage for this wine, which nonetheless went into a shell, flavor-wise, with aeration. This will need several years of bottle aging to lose some of its baby fat. Finishes very long, solid and extract-rich but without any rough edges. This wine shows a bit of the 2016’s sweetness but stronger supporting minerality.
Anticipated maturity: 2023-2031
