Tasting notes

The 2020 ripeness is apparent in the wine's generous, almost luscious texture, yet Girardin has preserved remarkable freshness through careful élevage. The mid-palate is expansive and rich baked apple, almond cream, white nectarine before the wine tightens dramatically on the finish, driven by that signature Corton-Charlemagne minerality: granite, struck flint, and a saline precision that carries on for minutes.
