Bonneau du Martray, Corton Charlemange, 1991 Magnum (1500ml)
91 Points. Even in mag format, this is essentially the same as the wine from 750 ml with perhaps a touch more vibrancy but not enough to make a difference in the score. The note from 750 ml is: Remarkably pure and fresh with no hints of oxidation (which is unusual for '91s today) followed by intense, pure, medium weight flavors and good finishing crispness and minerality. While this is drinking perfectly today, there is no particular rush , provided of course that your example has been well stored. Impressive. Burghound 2005.

93 Points. "Gorgeous aromatics of rich pears and white peaches emanate from the glass of the 2003 Corton-Charlemagne (white). A wine of impressive breadth and harmony, its suave personality spreads out over the palate releasing waves of satin-textured white fruits, slate, and fresh herbs. Lush, supple, and inviting, this offering's long finish displays a slight brightness of acid (natural), rendering it surprisingly light on its feet. One of the top 2003 white Burgundies, it should be at its best between 2006 and 2014. Bravo!" Wine Advocate # 158, Apr 2005

90 Points (Barrel Tasting). "Here the wood is not subtle though it's not intrusive either with pretty and ripe aromas of white flower, dried rose petal and acacia blossom nuanced by lemon hints leads to generous, rich and notably sweet flavors that offer good volume if not great finishing depth though this may arrive once it's in bottle." Burghound 2007.
