 | Qty=1Size=750 ml, RP[92]"De la Moriniere permitted me to re-visit the 1996 Corton-Charlemagne (rated 92-94 in issue #116). It is a fabulous wine that possesses mouth-watering aromas of almond and hazelnut creams. On the palate, this hugely ripe offering exhibits loads of minerals, nuts, honeyed lemons, butterscotch, and pears. It is medium-to-full-bodied, extremely rich (yet fresh and lively), as well as awesome length. I was surprised to find it so accessible at such an early stage. Projected maturity: now-2008." - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #123 (Jun 20, 1999) |
