Bonneau du Martray, Corton Charlemange, 2003 Magnum (1500ml)
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

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.

94 Points (Barrel Tasting). "The majority of wines in the range have been expressive and open yet this is tight and backward to the point of reticence yet it is still beautifully elegant with green apple and acacia blossom aromas that merge seamlessly into stunningly rich, full and powerful flavors that possess real drive and punch on the penetrating finish that is chiseled and almost painfully intense. We'll see the final result once it's in bottle but this would appear to have terrific potential, indeed this and the Montrachet may be the class of the group." Burghound 2007.
