Score 95/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

(from estate vines in Pougets, facing southeast): Bright yellow. Reticent but pure scents and flavors of ginger, gentian, fresh herbs and menthol convey strong soil-driven energy. More about minerals than fruit but this wonderfully juicy wine boasts terrific thrust and early personality, not to mention outstanding flavor intensity and generosity. FYI: the cellar price for this wine is 80 Euros, while the Montrachet sells for 500. You make the call. Sep 2016, www.vinous.com, Drink: 2024-2037

Really rather reticent on the nose. Gently creamy. But the intensity is unleashed on the palate. Pure focused, cedary citrus and terrific intensity all the way to the finish. Deep and long and impressive. Nov 2015, www.jancisrobinson.com, Drink: 2019-2029

The 2014 Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru has an attractive, comely bouquet with notes of popcorn, citrus fruit and shaved almond, all nicely defined. The palate is well balanced with a keen line of acidity, citrus fresh with a touch of orange sorbet, yet like many other 2014 Corton-Charlemagnes, it just seems denuded of material, substance on the finish, as if dipping before the finish line too early. Not bad, but I prefer some of Jadot's premier cru white to this. Dec 2015, www.robertparker.com

This is presently sufficiently reduced that it is impossible to fairly assess. The rich, powerful and beautifully delineated big-bodied flavors exhibit almost painful intensity as there is a plenitude of mouth coating extract that buffers the very firm acid spine that allows all of this size and weight to remain exquisitely well-balanced on the chiseled and moderately austere finish. This is not quite as complex or persistent as the Montrachet but it's not far off and note well that this too is going to require extended cellaring. Jun 2016, www.burghound.com, Drink: 2026+
