The 2012 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, which like the Meursault Perrieres, comes from contracted fruit, has a very tight grapefruit and linden-scented bouquet that needs a couple more years in bottle to really flow. The palate is rounded and generous on the entry with orange peel and citrus notes, although it tapers away toward the finish just when you start to enjoy this Corton-Charlemagne. Drink now-2019.
