2021 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, Domaine Denis

Producer: Domaine Denis Pere & Fils Wine: 2021 Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru Varietal: 100% Chardonnay Varietal: "Great, distinctive wine, which combines structure and distinction, with these very specific smoky notes on the palate, where persistent nuances of ripe fruit, toast and lily intermingle, while In the end, it requires cuisine to match its taste, such as lobster with herbs or pike mousse with crayfish sauce." 95/100 Dussert-Gerber "This Corton-Charlemagne shines with its very pure color and its initially vanilla nose, which releases notes of white flowers and then lemon when allowed to breathe. The almond and toasted hazelnut in turn pierce into an ample palate, whose richness is quickly relayed by a beautiful tension which gives shine and hold to the whole." - Le Guide Hachette  Pairings:  Fish or poultry in cream sauce, chicken with morel mushrooms, shellfish, white meats, camembert cheese with truffles and caviar.  Cellaring: Drink now or cellar until 2037
