The 2012 Bonneau du Martray Corton Charlie was probably a bit more structured out of
the blocks than the 2012 version will be, but their overall quality is quite comparable. With a
couple of years of bottle age this wine is showing very well, albeit still a bit too early on in its
evolution for primetime drinking. The lovely nose is a blend of candied lemon, pear, chalky soil
tones, lemon blossoms and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and rock
solid at the core, with lovely attack, fine focus and great length and grip on the very racy
backend. A classic. 2018-2040.
