Written Notes

1982 Domaine Bonneau du Martray Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru Very good colour, pronounced white gold, no signs of oxidation. Nose, very good condition. Still youthful with a bit of dafodile aroma. Creamy, yeasty, soft Petite Suisse. Palate; outstanding. Very pronounced, very rich and long. Incredibly powerful. Voluptuous. Evolved. Very concentrated and luscious. Drink within next 15 years. It evolved in the glass, the nose becoming toasty oak, flint with honey, developed strong strawberry and cream aromas. Pavlova nose of strawberries, cream and merengue. On the palate it developed pavlova flavours too.
