Corton-Charlemagne--Vintage 1998
Côte de Beaune, Bouchard
In original carton
"According to Hervet and Prost, the sulphur treatments of their domaine-owned Corton-Charlemagne parcel were so successful that "neighbors stole their grapes" before Bouchard's teams could harvest. Revealing ripe pear, apple, and mineral aromas, it is an attractively plump, rich, and fleshy wine that acts in a surprisingly forward, yet tight manner at the same time. Its flavor profile combines characteristics of well-ripened fruit, while also exhibiting the lemon-lime flavors generally associated with an under-ripe harvest. Overall, however, it is appealing, if not harmonious. Projected maturity: now-2005+." Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate #128 (Apr 2000)
