2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, Patrick Javillier

2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, Patrick Javillier

This is the jewel in the crown of this estate. The vines are on the Aloxe-Corton side of the hill, south-facing, with clay/limestone soil. It sees no new oak (instead, the small volume is vinified in one-year-old barrels), so it has a fresh fruit style. It always has that classic Corton-Charlemagne smoky bacon nose, and a palate of deep and concentrated fruit. The acidity of the vintage works brilliantly here with the natural weight and power of the site.
