93 Wine Spectator
A focused beam, this white wraps its lime, mineral, apple and vanilla notes around a core of bracing acidity. Has intensity and balance, yet this is firm and crisp on the finish for now, with real stony length. Best from 2010 through 2030. 400 cases imported. ?BS

Producer
Domaine Bonneau du Martray
Arguably the most celebrated producer of Corton-Charlemagne, it is the only estate in Burgundy to exclusively produce wine from Grand Cru vineyards. The extremely elegant yet personable Jean-Charles le Bault de la Mornière is currently at the helm of this formidable estate. He took over in 1994 when his uncle, Comte Jean le Bault retired, having run the estate from 1969 to 1993. The vineyards were originally purchased following the French Revolution, and they have remained in the family ever since. The original size covered 24 hectares, however it has been reduced over the years to its current size of 11 hectares, 9.5 being in Corton-Charlemagne, while the remaining lie in Corton and are consecrated to producing the domaine's red wine, though the white remains the star of the duo.
