Roulot, Corton Charlemagne other_regions_italy There is both excellent volume

There is both excellent volume and density to the relatively powerful and quite serious flavors that brim with minerality on the bone-dry if not really austere finish that just goes on and on

In addition to being a highly regarded vintage with perfectly balanced weather conditions

Pedesclaux seems to have arrived at its unique personality in this great vintage

Finishes moderately long and a bit simple

Roulot, Corton Charlemagne other_regions_italy There is both excellent volume(from Les Languettes in Aloxe and Hautes Mourottes in Ladoix). This is also admirably pure, cool and elegant with its array of green apple, wet stone, white flower and a plenitude of subtle spice elements. The sleek, intense and well detailed flavors are definitely not as dense, but they do flash equally good minerality on the impressively lengthy finale. This is also quite good, but it cant quite match the Chevalier overall excellence.
