Chandon de Briailles, Corton Charlemagne Blanc Size:6x750ml expressive and balanced red(from a tiny parcel in Les Renardes). This is aromatically similar to the straight Corton Blanc though with a whiff of the exotic lurking in the background. There is a lovely sense of energy to the much more obviously mineral and soil inflected larger scaled flavors that flash fine power and drive on the clean, dry and sneaky long finish. This will need to develop better depth to merit the upper end of my projected range, but it may well do so in time.
