95 John Gilman - View from the Cellar

"Maison Jadot has produced an absolutely stellar example of Corton-Charlemagne in the 2011 vintage, with the wine offering up a superb bouquet of apple, pear, orange zest, stony minerality, smoke, white flowers and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very primary in profile, with a rock solid core of fruit, crisp acids, laser-like focus and great length and grip on the youthful and utterly classic finish. 2020-2060+."

92-95 Allen Meadows - Burghound

"Like the Montrachet, this is also presently quite aromatically reticent with its aromas of lemon/lime, wet stone and Granny Smith apples that are trimmed in a subtle application of warm oak. The equally expansive, taut and well-muscled broad-shouldered flavors possess an ample amount of dry extract and intensity on the driving finish that exhibits a faint saline character. I very much like the intensity here as well as the very dry backend and this should be superb if allowed adequate cellar time."
