Lot #91. Bouchard Père & Fils Corton Charlemagne 2004

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 95+ ST.
"Pale, bright color. A quintessence of Corton-Charlemagne dirt on the nose: stone fruits, lemon, iodine, ginger, minerals and mint, all complicated by a musky, leesy note that reminded me of a Coche-Dury wine. Then compellingly dense and penetrating in the mouth, with captivating, soil-driven flavors of raw pineapple, white peach, white flowers and crushed rock; a sulfidey complexity and a saline element add to the wine's spectacular subtle complexity. Hardly a blockbuster but conveys an impression of great solidity. This remarkably precise wine coats the palate with dusty stone and leaves behind a suggestion of honey." Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 06
Provenance: The Nantais Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $130
