PIERRE MEURGEY CORTON-CHARLEMAGNE GRAND CRU 2023

Same grapes as the domaine including some he owns himself. 2 barrels total, one new and a one-year-old, with crushing before pressing for half of it. Mid lemon yellow, reductive on the nose but not gun flint, more bacon fat. A sense of weight more than minerals, at least on the nose. The stones do arrive on the palate, surrounded by a fairly fleshy white fruit, nothing yellow. There is plenty of it and it is good! Drink from 2029-2036. Tasted Oct. 2024.
