Domaine Patrick Javillier, Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2010

Imported by Martin Scott Wines Ltd., Lake Success NY.

From methuselah. DIAM closure.

Light gold. Invigorating nose of apple blossom and honeysuckle. Seductive richness of mutsu, white peach, and seckel pear. Glossiness of texture, with a lick of salt and faintly tart fruit-skin and citrus zest notes adding complexity. Mineral invocations at the end, saturated in scree, chalk dust, and a milky glacial flour. Now – 2035+.
