Domaine Bouchard Père & Fils Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru 1998
Burgundy, FranceRich apple, pear, citrus aromas with mineral, leesy, toast and butter characters with a touch of bees' wax and fig. Excellent complexity. Medium weight and round with moderately crisp acidity, toasted lees, nutty, citrus, mineral and apple flavours. Long slightly oily, citrus and butter lees aftertaste with a tight finish. Young yet elegant and balanced. Will need 2-4 years to be fully integrated.Tasted: 01 September 1999Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $107.00 | 750ml | Speculative - Grady Wine Marketing |
