CALIFORNIA vs. FRANCE - 2006 CHARDONNAY - (4) Bottles
(2) Bottles each of 2006 Domaine Louis Latour Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru and Ramey "Hudson Vineyard" Carneros Chardonnay. This is a rare opportunity to compare older chardonnays of the same vintage from California and France.
The Domaine Louis Latour exhibits power, density and huge richness - all the attributes you expect from a Corton-Charlemagne, but with this vintage, the ripe tropical fruits are crispened with acidity which cuts through the impressive opulence. 95 pts - WE, 90-91 pts - RP.
The Ramey is "clean, bright, layered and well-defined," "an impressive medium to full-bodied style with beautiful fruit, a subtle dosage of wood and a heady finish." 96 pts - CG, 91 pts - RP
