Domaine Bonneau du Martray Charlemagne Grand Cru 2021 is an iconic, highly sophisticated white Burgundy produced from biodynamically farmed old Chardonnay vines on the high-elevation, west-facing slopes of the Hill of Corton. Revealing a pale straw hue with luminous green highlights, it opens with an alluring, multi-layered bouquet of citrus oil, green apple, white peach, white blossoms, crushed chalk, and subtle toasted brioche. On the palate, the wine is medium- to full-bodied, remarkably concentrated, and tightly wound, displaying vibrant acidity, a refined stony texture, and a long, saline-tinged mineral finish.
Food Pairing: Pairs exce. butter-poached lobster, pan-seared sea scallops, turbot in beurre blanc, roasted poultry with black truffles, wild mushroom risotto, and aged Comté cheese.
95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Cropped at a mere eight hectoliters per hectare after being hit by the April frosts and then challenged by severe disease pressure, the 2021 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has nevertheless turned out beautifully, offering up aromas of tangerine oil, crisp stone fruit, clear honey, white flowers and freshly baked bread. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and textural, with terrific depth at the core, tangy acids and a precise, saline finish, it will only gain with further élevage.
