2012 Chanson, Corton Charlemagne

Here the nose is much less expressive and only grudgingly reveals notes of green apple, white flowers and wet stone. The textured, dense and powerful full-bodied flavors possess excellent mid-palate concentration before culminating in a saline, dry and impeccably well-balanced finish. This is relatively forward in the context of what is typical for the appellation and should be relatively approachable young if desired.
