Review

"The 2022 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is a gorgeous wine. It is also surprisingly open-knit. Soft contours wrap around a core of apricot, ripe pear, chamomile, marzipan and dried flowers. The 2022 spent twelve months in barrel followed by six months in a combination of mostly stainless steel with some sandstone amphora and larger-format oak. This is an undeniably attractive and engaging wine. Ideally, it would be nice to see a bit more Charlemagne energy. Then again, 2022 was marked by very warm, dry weather and four heat spikes. It will be interesting to see how this develops in bottle." - Vinous
