Mealy lively nose with some sulphide character. Very solid with almonds but no excitement. Stodgy. Quite a bit of alcohol. Quite phenolic. (JR)

Spicy stones can be discerned in the aromatics of the 2002 Corton-Charlemagne. Light to medium-bodied, fresh, and revealing impressive depth as well as concentration, it displays liquefied rock, pear, and apple flavors throughout its lengthy character. Notes of roasted herbs and minerals make their presence felt in its long, suave finish. Anticipated maturity: now-2012. Maison Louis Latour has a different importer in each state.
