Review Date: 02/2026Bottled in June 2025, Bonneau du Martray's 2023 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has turned out beautifully, wafting from the glass with aromas of crisp orchard fruits, clear honey, buttery pastry and toasted nuts. Full-bodied, ample and fleshy, it's dense and layered, with a satiny attack that segues into a multidimensional mid-palate animated by tangy acids, concluding with a chalky finish. It's a resounding success. This 11-hectare domaine, under American ownership since 2017, boasts fully 9.5 hectares of Corton-Charlemagne, the largest holding in this grand cru. Biodynamically certified since 2013, the estate is now harvested and vinified block by block, giving the technical team the rare opportunity to produce a "cru" that is also a blend—with all the enviable advantages that entails. Proper climate control has already improved conditions for maturation in the cellars, and the domaine's new winery, long in the planning, will only increase the possibilities open to the team. In 2023, a small parcel of Bâtard-Montrachet joined the estate's range, reviewed here. Readers looking for more information about Bonneau du Martray's past, present and future are directed to the June 2023 Week 3 issue (published on June 22) of The Wine Advocate.(WK)
