Very ripe aromas of lemon oil, grilled nuts, toasted bread and brown spices. Fat, rich and very ripe, with mineral and spice flavors accented by lemon zest, lime and lavender. This initially struck me as weightier and less classic than the 2015, but the wine's strong spine of stony acidity gives it terrific penetration and really frames and extends the fruit on the long finish. Still, this big, smooth wine is showing beautifully today. Winemaker Sieve notes that the south\/southeast exposition of the vines gives this wine a crunchy fruit character along with considerable weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA rare two-vintage Grand Cru offering, beautifully presented in a complimentary wooden wine box.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"67Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54583257268507,"sku":"210000061518","price":999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/1789\/4171\/files\/wcsrgafk8anx1lepqklp.jpg?v=1794339100","url":"https:\/\/67wino.shop\/products\/domaine-de-montille-library-release-domaine-corton-charlemagne-grand-cru-2009-2014-750ml-introductory-offer","provider":"67","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
