The 2016 Laurent Ponsot Corton-Charlemagne Cuvée du Kalimeris Grand Cru is an outstanding white Burgundy, reflecting Laurent Ponsot's commitment to minimal intervention and eschewing new oak to highlight the wine's purity and terroir. This Grand Cru is sourced from mature plots across Aloxe and Pernand, creating a "universal" Corton-Charlemagne of serious class, depth, and length. The nose offers a lovely luminous glow of white fruits that intensifies gradually, like a morning mist. It also presents a deep, reserved bouquet with scents of apple, white peach, chalky soil tones, spring flowers, and a touch of lemon blossom. On the palate, the wine is deep, pure, and full-bodied, with great intensity, racy acids, and stunning backend mineral drive and energy. Delicate white fruits and clear minerals shine with lovely purity, gentle richness, and transparency, alongside traces of nutmeg, finishing with a persistent tangy mouthfeel. Vivino users describe notes of butter, oak, vanilla, apple, peach, pear, minerals, honey, stone, lemon, citrus, and lime. 【A wine of serious class, depth and length】.
