Tasting Note
Louis Latour Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2018 is powerful, mineral-driven, and impeccably structured. Aromas of lemon oil, white peach, pear, and crushed stone are layered with hints of almond, subtle spice, and a touch of smoke. The palate is broad yet precise, delivering concentrated citrus and orchard fruit framed by vibrant acidity and a firm limestone core. Textural, focused, and remarkably long, the finish is intense and saline—classic Corton-Charlemagne grandeur with clarity and tension.
