From Alex Gambal Vineyards:
Our Corton Charlemagne arrives at the end of the harvest so that we have good ripeness. Its power is always there however, it is simply a question that the vintage decides when it wants to show it all off. The 2007’s purity and linear nature is classic; it will need at least 5-7 years to open. 50% new oak.
Alex Gambal Vineyards (Burgundy, France)
 As an American, Alex Gambal has a quite unique story, having founded his own Burgundian winery in 1997. Alex Gambal started by making �n�gociant� wine (using purchased grapes), but has since bought his own vineyards, allowing him to make proprietary �domaine� wines. His rigorous attitude towards quality and his minimalist interventionist winemaking philosophy clearly show in the full-bodied, yet smooth texture of all of his wines. Alex produces a range of outstanding white (chardonnay) and red (pinot noir) Burgundies varying in depth and style from regional (�Bourgogne�) to Village, 1er Cru, and Grand cru levels. As evidenced by the press coverage around the world, Alex is truly a rising star in Burgundy. His white wines from Corton Charlemagne and Chassagne-Montrachet are truly special wines and built on traditional structure that allows for years of aging. Alex�s red wine offering includes some of the best vineyards available including Clos Veugeot and Chambolle-Musigny �Les Amoureuses.�
