"For my money, Corton Charlemagne is as good as any Grand Cru white Burgundy (Montrachet, Chevalier Montrachet, etc.) at a fraction of the price. It’s the most serious Grand Cru white Burgundy at the most reasonable price point." - Dave Sokolin
Corton Charlemagne is also the most popular Grand Cru white Burgundy for a reason – almost every bottle is generally great. Louis Latour is an old-school producer and is consistently one of our top-selling producers of Corton Charlemagne, year after year. The Latour family is the largest landowner of the Corton Charlemagne appellation and has been producing wines for over 200 years.
The wine review by wine critic James Suckling is terrific. "Such a classic Corton Charlemagne! Stunningly concentrated and powerful, but also so graceful. Very racy at the long finish, which has so much mineral freshness. Takes your breath away! Drink or hold." - James Suckling
Louis Latour Corton Charlemagne is a staple wine for so many white Burgundy lovers. This high-scoring gem not only comes from a highly regarded producer, but it also comes from the A+ 2019 vintage. And that best part is that it’s priced at only $199 / bottle for the 98 point Corton Charlemagne of a lifetime!
"2019 is the most interesting/best vintage I've tried since 1989/1990. 2019 is the new 1989 meets 1990 hypothetical blend vintage as per me and now Burghound! It's unreal." - Dave Sokolin
This is a perfect Grand Cru white Burgundy to have on hand for spring and summer enjoyment! In stock and ready to ship.
Cheers!
