Immediately tighter, more expressive (than the Montrachet) greener nose. Fiercer, wilder. Rough rock, a mountainous wine, densely-packed and full of untamed power. Long finish. L&S (Dec 2012)

An utterly mesmerizing wine, the 2011 Corton-Charlemagne conquers all of the senses with its grace and harmony. Lemon oil, white flowers, pears and crushed rocks are some of the many notes that are woven together in the glass. The 2011 is perfumed, sublime and drop-dead gorgeous from the very first taste. With time, though, the wine blossoms beautifully as it fills out its broad-shouldered frame with tons of style. Rating: 96 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Nov 2013)

Hugely rich and well sculpted. This wine does seem to be of grand cru quality. There is real concentration and structure here. 2017-2030 Rating: 17.5 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Jan 2013)
