Darker gold; slightly oxidized with cereal, roasted nuts, toasted sourdough, slight honied note; silky on the palate, a little honey nut cheerios with a slight sour aspect. Would have been nice 4-5 years ago (as long as it's not pre-mox which I don't think it is--probably shipping/storage issue, but who knows). Actually not bad but would have been nice a little bit cleaner and fresher. I'm enjoying it for what it's worth tonight with Calamari and won-ton soup.

Chardonnay and Pinot Noir comparison - France, Australia, NZ, USA (G&E's, Melbourne): Tasted next to 2002 Yarra Yering Chard and after a paired flight of Kumeu Mates 2021 and 2018 Ridge Chardonnay. I’ve had a few Montrachet before, but this was my first CC. Complex, developing nicely, but still with plenty of fruit. Loads of flavour intensity, slightly nutty and spicy, all held together with a strong acid spine. A great wine indeed. (96 Superb wine)

(Domaine / Maison Vincent Girardin Corton-Charlemagne) Pale lemon yellow color; lovely lemon and cream nose; very tasty, delicate but juicy, fresh lemon, sweet grapefruit palate with creamy texture; medium-plus finish (nicely paired with smoked trout with creme fraiche and roe)

Medium nose intensity with notes of honey, nut, cream, oak, toast. Felt it was slightly tired. Medium+ acidity.
