Fresh herbs, stones, minerals, and toast can be detected in the nose of the 2003 Corton-Charlemagne (white). This wine reveals flavors reminiscent of a pear that went soft and juicy without fully ripening on the tree, spices, and sage. It is light to medium-bodied, focused, bright, and long in the finish. Drink it over the next 6 years.
