According to Hervet and Prost, the sulphur treatments of their domaine-owned Corton-Charlemagne parcel were so successful that "neighbors stole their grapes" before Bouchard's teams could harvest. Revealing ripe pear, apple, and mineral aromas, it is an attractively plump, rich, and fleshy wine that acts in a surprisingly forward, yet tight manner at the same time. Its flavor profile combines characteristics of well-ripened fruit, while also exhibiting the lemon-lime flavors generally associated with an under-ripe harvest. Overall, however, it is appealing, if not harmonious. Projected maturity: now-2005+. Importer: Clicquot, Inc., New York, NY; tel (212) 888-7575.

Fleshy and full, with complex, tight-knit fruit and oak still resolving into a seamless whole. All the ingredients are there, and the wine seems to lengthen endlessly through a butterscotch finish. A step below the Chevalier, but at half the cost.——P.G.(7/1/2000)—— 91
