The 2016 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is the product of a tiny harvest in which a significant portion of the vintage was damaged by frost. The berries that ultimately made it into the tanks (all first generation) had very thick skins. In tasting, the 2016 is quite concentrated and also very exotic, with strong tropical inflections. Even so, there is an element of translucence to the 2016 that is beguiling. It will be interesting to see how it ages. Antonio Galloni1st October 2020
