(WA93-95 points) The 2013 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru was affected by a little hail but it was the coulure that reduced the crop down to just three barrels. It has a very lifted bouquet, very opulent and ostentatious and you can forgive it for that. Wonderful delineation and intense yellow plum, Mirin, white peach and mineral scents that swarm from the glass. The palate is very well balanced with impressive weight in the mouth, the acidity finely tuned and a finish that has something almost Napa in terms of its audacity (and that is meant positively not negatively.) Chapeau! - Neal Martin

(BH90-93 points) As is sometimes the case there is a Chablis-like mineral reduction present along with white flower and green apple aromas that are trimmed in just enough wood to notice. Here too there is excellent volume to the well-detailed and markedly stony middle weight plus flavors that deliver outstanding length on the notably dry and mildly austere finish. I very much like the intensity and while this should amply reward up to a decade of cellar time it should also drink reasonably well after only 5 or so years of bottle age.
