Reviews.."Shows fine density, even a slight astringency. Ripe apple and peach flavors are rich and persistent, with vanilla and mineral notes emerging on the finish. The long, expansive finish reveals its potential." Wine Spectator
"Brilliant and ultra fine aromas of green apples and limestone lead to almost Chablis-like intensity and razor-sharp, incredibly delineated, chiseled flavors that offer superb texture and an almost chewy finish. This is quite different from many examples of 2002 Corton-Charlemagne as this more of a world class gymnast than a weight lifter as it's sleek, silky and taut plus the delineation is like a hot knife through butter. In short, this is reference standard Corton-Charlemagne and highly recommended." Burghound
"...a beautifully defined nose, touches of melted candle wax, almond, cooking apple, a touch of white flowers and a hint of ground coconut. Wonderful lift and exuberance. The palate is very youthful considering the vintage although there is still some unresolved oak towards the finish. It merits further cellaring, there is more to come here, but it is certainly a class act." eRobertParker.com
