Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. Chanson’s Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2011 has quite an opulent and ripe bouquet with hints of dried honey, lemon curd and petrol scents that emerges with aeration and end up dominating the aromatics. The palate seems to have a fine line of acidity, quite rich but controlled: lemon rind, dried mango and honeysuckle augmented with a dash of spice toward the finish that does not quite have the delineation or tension to round things off in suitable fashion. This becomes more and more oxidative with aeration, which is concerning.
