Corton Charlemagne 2021 Vintage Overview

2021 OVERVIEW

Tight and racy, Vincent Girardin’s 2021 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru leans on citrus—think pithy lemon and orange zest—layered over crisp green apple, restrained oak spice and a firm, chalky spine. The palate is compact rather than opulent, delivering piercing intensity, bright acidity and a slightly bitter, peppery edge that promises complexity rather than easy charm. This is a coiled, ageworthy Corton-Charlemagne that will reward patience more than immediate gratification.
