97 Points from James Suckling saying:
"Open and aromatic with honeysuckle flowers, dried apples and mangoes, as well as white peaches and stone. Full-bodied, this grows slowly on the palate with an intense, powerful finish. Lots of cream, cooked apples, lemons and light oak at the very end. Tight and right."
 
 
 
 
95 Points from Wine Spectator saying:
#6 Top 100 Wine of 2021 "Fresh and fruity, with aromas and flavors of lemon, pear, white flowers and stone, showing great tension and an underlying mineral component that gives this energy and length. The lemon theme continues on the lingering aftertaste, along with butter and pastry accents."
 
 
 
 
94 Points from Decanter Magazine saying:
"Louis Latour dominates the appellation of Corton-Charlemagne, with 10 ha under vine and lots of different aspects and altitudes to choose from in Aloxe-Corton. This has lovely floral scents that lead you into a palate that's rich, leesy and magisterial with notes of citrus, pear and banana bread, well-integrated new wood and a hint of stony reduction. Consistently the négociant's best white."
 
 
 
 
background:
Famous Grand Cru White Burgundy. The vineyard of Corton-Charlemagne is situated in the prime area of the hillside of Corton where its southeasterly aspect ensures maximum exposure to the sun. Louis Latour is one of the most renowned producers of this exceptional wine. The fruit is harvested as late as possible to guarantee maximum ripeness. 2018 was an excellent vintage for these white Burgundy wines.
