Description
By Wine Spectator in 2021 (WS95)
Well-marked by toasty, smoky oak, this white also delivers concentrated peach, pear and lemon notes, backed by a vibrant structure. The oak is intrusive now, so decant or give this a few more years of bottle age. *Collectible*
By Decanter in 2019 (TA95)
Combining grapes from two parcels, one in Pernand-Vergelesses and the other in Aloxe-Corton, this is a superb 65/35 blend that marries two very different terroirs. The 40% new wood needs a little more time to integrate, but this is a racy, subtle, intense Corton-Charlemagne with the precision and focus that you expect from a Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey white.
By Wine Advocate in 2021 (WA94)
A tensile, racy wine—two-thirds from Pernand-Vergelesses, one-third from Aloxe-Corton—the 2018 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru unwinds in the glass with scents of white flowers, orange oil, buttery pastry and nutmeg. Medium to full-bodied, layered and fleshy, it’s chiseled and saline, with impressive cut and grip.
By Burghound in 2019 (AM91-94)
A restrained, ultra-fresh and distinctly floral nose reflects notes of various white orchard fruit aromas, lemon zest and discreet wood toast. There is outstanding volume to the rich and succulent broad-shouldered flavors that possess focused power on the beautifully long and sappy mineral-infused finish that is shaped by citrus-tinged acidity.
