Domaine des Croix - Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru - 2019

“The 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru contained so much dry extract that David Croix decided to rack it into older barrels after 12 months instead of into vat. You can tell on the nose what Croix means, because this has a very phenolic bouquet featuring waxy/resinous aromas, peach skin and linseed oil. The palate is rounded and generous, lovely, almost oily in texture, offering enticing notes of apricot, lemon thyme, peach skin and ginger notes, and candied and slightly honeyed on the finish. This is a fabulous Corton-Charlemagne that will be fascinating to revisit once bottled.” 94-96 Points Neal Martin, Vinous.com
