Alpine flowers, cool orchard fruit and a lick of lemon curd glide through Bouchard Père & Fils Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2022, all wrapped around a powerful core of limestone grip and salty tension. The palate feels both creamy and chiselled, with ripe peach and tropical hints held firmly in check by racy acidity and a long, mouthwatering, mineral finish that promises real grandeur with time in bottle.

Bouchard Père & Fils’s Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is a benchmark white Burgundy from nearly four hectares of high, east- to southeast-facing Chardonnay vines at the top of the Corton hill, rooted in thin white marl over limestone and cooled by the neighboring forest. The wine typically marries intense fruit and toasty notes with pronounced chalky minerality in a powerful, structured frame that remains remarkably tense and fresh, built to evolve gracefully in bottle for many years.
