Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 13 Feb 20
From vines in Languettes and Hautes Mourottes, Roulot's 2018 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru reveals aromas of citrus zest, green apple, white flowers and crushed chalk. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive, it's racy and tensile, with a fine-boned core of fruit and a mineral finish.
