Joseph Drouhin Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru 2020

Pale colour with engaging minerality. Lifted but lovely, finesse and tension. Some liquorice behind, very good length, and with time will fill out the middle of the palate.

96 Points - James Suckling

 Cool, restrained and mineral with a subtle aroma of violets, this is a youthful and highly structured Corton-Charlemagne that has the noble austerity of this Grand Cru at the very long crushed-stone finish. From a high-altitude parcel on the southeast-facing side of the hill of Corton. 

93+ Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

 Aromas of pear, citrus zest, struck match, fresh bread and pastry cream introduce Drouhin's 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru (Domaine), a full-bodied, deep and complete wine that's satiny and layered, with lively acids and a chalky finish.

92 Points - Vinous

 The 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is a little conservative on the nose and takes some time to open. Yellow fruit, just a touch of candle wax and just a hint of lime. The palate is rounded on the entry, good weight, honeyed in texture with fine acidity. Just a hint of white pepper perks up the finish here.
