Wine Advocate Gorgeous aromatics of rich pears and white peaches emanate from the glass of the 2003 Corton-Charlemagne (white). A wine of impressive breadth and harmony, its suave personality spreads out over the palate releasing waves of satin-textured white fruits, slate, and fresh herbs. Lush, supple, and inviting, this offering’s long finish displays a slight brightness of acid (natural), rendering it surprisingly light on its feet. One of the top 2003 white Burgundies, it should be at its best between 2006 and 2014. Bravo! Importer: Diageo Chateau and Estate Wines Company, New York, NY; tel. (212) 419-1400 Score: 93. —Pierre Rovani, April 2005.
Wine Spectator Restrained for the vintage, this is elegant and grounded in lemon, mineral and hazelnut aromas and flavors accented by spicy oak. There's a little alcohol showing, but this is well-balanced and long. Best from 2008 through 2018. 500 cases made. Score: 92. —Bruce Sanderson, June 30, 2006.
