About this Item

2014 Corton-Charlemagne
1 (1 x 1) 1500ml

Corton-Charlemagne is one of the most esteemed Grand Cru vineyards in Burgundy, renowned for producing some of the finest white wines in the region. Situated on the Corton hill, it benefits from a unique terroir characterized by limestone-rich soils and optimal sun exposure, which contribute to the production of wines with depth, complexity, and aging potential.

Critics Ratings

'The 2014 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is fabulous. It is a bright, airy Charlemagne bursting at the seams with tons of class. Lemon peel, crushed rocks and white pepper are some of the many notes that are laced together in the 2014. There is a feeling of phenolic intensity on the finish that is very distinctive. I would prefer to cellar the 2014 for at least a few years, as it is really not ready to offer maximum pleasure yet. Thirty percent of the harvest was lost to hail that year. Drinking window 2022 - 2034.’ – Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com, 95/100 (Oct 2020)
