Parker Review:
The intense mineral aromas of the 2003 CortonCharlemagne (white) lead to a mediumbodied, seamless core of fruit. Silkytextured, it offers flavors reminiscent of grilled minerals, oak spices, and crisp pears. This fresh, wellstructured effort is a candidate for drinking between 2008 and 2016.
Other Reviews:
A subtle background hint of wood spice frames the baked green apple and pear fruit aromas as well as the powerful, rich and robust flavors that do a slow build from the midpalate to the explosive finish that is almost painfully intense. This is blessed with massive amounts of dry extract if not great elegance and I do like the purity. Burghound
