    In a few words ...

    Maison Louis Latour's Corton-Charlemagne has a brilliant, pale yellow color. The complex nose offers lovely aromas of almonds, vanilla and a hint of smoke. The imposing, opulent palate delivers notes of fresh almonds, acacia honey and vanilla. Very long and beautiful persistence.

    Le Guide Hachette des Vins

    Le Guide Hachette des Vins Critique professionnel

    "White flowers, pear, vanilla and toast make up an open, very harmonious nose. On the palate, fatness and acidity are perfectly balanced, and a beautiful saline finish brings the tasting to a long conclusion. 2021-2028"

    Tasting notes

    Appearance

    Pale gold in its youth and adorned with green reflections.

    Aroma

    In an infinite delicacy, its bouquet expresses, in buttered tones, baked apple, citrus, pineapple, linden, fern, juniper, cinnamon and flint. Honey notes are common.

    Wine Fruity | Vegatable

    Taste

    Of a virulent richness, the Chardonnay is surprising here by its concentration, its distinction and its balance. Rarely does the grape's grace establish such a close link with the character of its terroir.

    brioche nose, almost mentholated, with hints of almond and surprising fatness. Opened a little early, it should be cellared for a few more years.
