Wanted: 2007 Girardin Corton Ch Quintessence

I’m trying to find one or more bottles of 2007 Girardin Corton Charlemagne Quintessence for the upcoming series of premox dinners on February 4 and/or March 19. Provenance is important.

Wish I could help. Maybe the oak will prevent premox :wink:

Actually, oak isn’t an issue with the Girardin Cortons from 2004 onward. Girardin has repeatedly lowered the percentage of new oak over time. Prior to 2002 it was 100% for the Corton Charlemagnes. In 2002 that percentage was reduced to 80%. In 2004 it was reduced to 40%. In 2008 it was down to 25%. In 2009 it was 20%. The 2004 and 2005 versions of the Quintessence were truly outstanding wines. That’s why I’m trying to obtain some 2007 for this year’s premox dinners.
