Lemon rind aromas green apple, some tropical fruit as I said in January 2019, and a touch of honeysuckle. On the palate rich flavours - some butter and plenty of mineral at 11 years of age. Concentrated and delicious proving its Grand Cru credentials from Corton Charlemagne. This is an excellent GC White Burgundy from a producer better known for its holdings in Chassagne Montrachet.

Notes of tropical fruits. Very rich ripe fruit on the palate. Reflecting the warm 2015 vintage making it a trickier vintage to control over the cooler 2014 vintage. As always the better producers did well.
