This 2016 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru from Bonneau du Martray, a prestigious white Burgundy, offers a complex and evolving profile. On the nose, expect intense aromas of ripe citrus (lemon, grapefruit), green apple, white flowers (acacia, hawthorn), and a distinct minerality reminiscent of wet stone or flint. As it opens, subtle notes of toasted nuts, butter, brioche, and a touch of honey or beeswax from oak aging and bottle age will emerge. The palate is full-bodied and powerful, yet balanced by searing acidity. It delivers concentrated flavors of citrus, orchard fruit, and a persistent mineral streak, culminating in a long, elegant, and saline finish. The wine displays a beautiful tension between richness and freshness.
