Critic Scores

“5 barrels made and the malolactic is just finishing, so no sulphur has been added yet. Thus the wine is currently a little broad, with baked apples, and significant flesh on the palate. Though the aromatic side is slightly disturbed, the main body of the wine is all in place, with plenty of energy and persistence. This looks like turning into a very good example. Drink from 2030-2038.” - 93-96 Points, Inside Burgundy

“Offering up aromas of ripe orchard fruit, apple blossom, white flowers and freshly baked bread, the 2022 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with racy acids and a sweet core of fruit that lingers on the finish. It's being matured in 300-liter barrels.” - 92-94 Points, William Kelley

Prominent notes of lactic character are present as this had just finished its secondary fermentation and had not yet been racked. On the palate though there is good freshness and verve as well as fine volume to the dense, and powerful larger-bodied flavors that are rich to the point of opulence, even viscousness, all wrapped in a compact, austere and very serious finale. While this isn't easy to evaluate, it seems clear that it is going to require extended keeping.
