From a parcel with southern exposure in the Pougets sector, the 2002 Corton-Charlemagne Cuvee Speciale sports a creamy, nutty nose. Medium to full-bodied, soft, and plush, this rich, fat, dense wine coats the taster’s mouth with layers of spicy toasted white fruits. It is concentrated, well-balanced, and exceptionally long., Drink it between 2009-2018.
