Louis Latour Corton Charlemagne 2020 (75 cl)
Chardonnay
France

 

Average critic rating: 96,6

Wine Spectator : 95    Suckling : 97    Bettane & Dessauve : 98   Robinson 18+  Tim Atkin : 96    

Probably the best Corton Charlemagne vinified by Louis Latour.
A rich, very concentrated, powerful and structured wine that has perfectly integrated the fruit and the oak. With notes of yellow fruits, spices and floral notes, it is based on a flawless minerality that brings it to a soft finish epsui lasts more than a minute: a masterpiece. 

To be enjoyed with grilled lobster. 

 

Wine Spectator : 95/100

An opulent white, powerful even, but with a vibrant structure that keeps it focused and drives the seemingly endless finish. With lingering floral, peach, melon and mineral flavors, it fades gracefully for over a minute. Best from 2024 to 2033. 3,800 cases produced, 1,700 cases imported.

James Suckling : 97/100

A very fresh and tight Corton Charlemagne with the intense spice, bold structure and steeliness one expects from this appellation. Staggering concentration, which at this early stage makes the wine slightly austere, but all this gives it great aging potential. Fantastic integration of oak, fruit and mineral acidity in a stunning finish. Drinkable now, but better from 2024.

Bettane & Dessauve : 98/100

A little more genius, for this wine which dominates the cellar, as moreover the vivifiers think. Great complex nose of vine flower with the sap richness of Charlemagnes with southern exposure, majestic finish, great future, great wine, worthy of its status and its price. Peak after 2030 

 

Jancis Robinson : 18+/20 (97/100)

Sample barrels. This one absolutely stood out among the white wines. I tried the 2019 and 2020 Corton-Charlemagne. Both were good, but the 2020 has a lot more to it. Complex, nutty, concentrated acidity. All the components are there, but it needs time to integrate properly. It will be memorable. (AWH) Blind tasted.

Pinot Lorem is very painful, it will be followed by a doctor, but it will happen at the same time as a lot of work and pain. For to come to the smallest detail, no one should practice any kind of work unless he derives some benefit from it. Do not be angry with the pain in the rebuke, in the pleasure he wants to be a hair from the pain, let him run away from the pain. Unless they are blinded by lust, they do not come out; they are in fault who abandon their duties and soften their hearts, that is toil. It's important to take care of yourself.
