Reviews of 2005 Girardin, Vincent Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay
92 points, Burghound July 2007 A generously oaked nose features wood spice, vanilla and ripe green fruit aromas though the oak is more moderate on the palate as the big and sleekly muscled flavors possess ample dry extract to soak up most of the wood. There is good if not outstanding precision and detail, which keeps it from being at the next level. In sum, an excellent but not truly outstanding example.
93 points, Stephen Tanzer September 2007 ($119) Pale, green-tinged color. Apple and spice on the nose; at once more exotic and more austere than the '06. Ripe, supple and densely packed, with a piquant spice character to the apple and stone flavors. Finishes with subtly spicy dusty length and lingering sweetness.
93 points, Wine Spectator June 2008 Rich, yet also bright and restrained, showing apple, yellow plum, lime, mineral and oak spice aromas and flavors. It has a linear profile, with intensity and terrific length. Best from 2010 through 2025. 400 cases imported. –BS
About 2005 Girardin, Vincent Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay
About the Winery Girardin, Vincent
Domaine Vincent Girardin can trace its roots back to the 17th century.
It was originally located in Santenay in the Cote de Beaune, but in
2002 Girardin moved the winery to Meursault. He buys fruit from
old-vine parcels up and down the Cote de Nuits and Cote de Beaune.
Vincent Girardin has been hailed as the "golden boy" by Wine Spectator
and has produced some of the finest wines coming from Burgundy, which
has been noted vintage after vintage by wine critic Robert Parker.br
