2023 Domaine Antonin Guyon, Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, Burgundy - 750ML

[92–95 Points] Early barrel assessments and vintage projections for top Corton-Charlemagne producers indicate excellent potential for the 2023 vintage.

Domaine Antonin Guyon is one of Burgundy’s largest family-owned estates, with holdings across both the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune. Their parcel in Corton-Charlemagne sits on the famed limestone slopes of the Corton hill, producing a Grand Cru Chardonnay known for its tension, mineral depth, and longevity. In the warm yet balanced 2023 vintage, the wine captures the power of the site while retaining the precision and freshness that define great Corton-Charlemagne.

Blend: 100% Chardonnay

Tasting Notes:
Aromatic layers of citrus oil, white peach, crushed stone, and acacia blossom unfold from the glass. The palate is broad yet finely chiseled, with notes of lemon curd, ripe orchard fruit, hazelnut, and wet limestone. Subtle oak integration adds texture without overshadowing the wine’s mineral backbone, leading to a long, saline finish.

Structure: Powerful, mineral-driven, and age-worthy.

Drink Window: 2027–2045+

Decanting:
Young Corton-Charlemagne benefits from aeration. Decant for 45–60 minutes if opening in its youth to allow the aromatics and mineral layers to fully express.

A classic Grand Cru white Burgundy built for both the cellar and the table, the 2023 Domaine Antonin Guyon Corton-Charlemagne offers the scale and structure collectors expect from this legendary hill. Its combination of richness, precision, and longevity makes it a compelling addition to serious Burgundy collections.
