94+ Happily, the 2013 Corton-Charlemagne was still open after its mise and was showing very well indeed at the time of my visit, offering up a deep and very esthery nose of apple, pear, bee pollen, a potpourri of spring flowers, chalky minerality and a discreet base of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and racy, with a fine core of fruit, bright acids and lovely length and cut on the focused and nascently complex finish. This is a beautiful vintage for the Bonneau du Martray Corton-Charlemagne. (Drink between 2022-2050)
