Pascal Clément Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2017
Côte d'Or, Burgundy, FranceBorn into a family of growers and winemakers, Pascal had more than 20 vintages working experience in Bourgogne before he started his own project in 2012. Based in Savigny-les-Beaune, where he owns a half hectare organic vineyard, he farms 10 ha across 29 appellations in Bourgogne for his wines. 80% of his production is white wine, a passion honed by his years of winemaking at Coche Dury, amongst others. He farms with no chemicals, does native ferment in older, larger barrels, employs MLF, and never uses bâtonnage in his wines, leaving them on full lees after pressing. From 15 year old vines in a very cool climat of Pernand-Vergelesses, this whole bunch chardonnay was native fermented and aged 16 months in older wood. Powerful and dense and dynamic, with toasted hazelnuts, lemon curd, ample flint, crystalline lemon peel, wrapped around a green apple core. Though quite impactful on the palate, it is shaped and sharpened with a brace of broken stony minerality which lingers long on the finish. Still very much in youth, give this time to open now, or better yet, hold in your cellar for 5-10 years.Tasted: 29 January 2022Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $280.00 | 750ml | consignment |
