Magnificent wine from a 1er Cru terroir. The Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru 2022 offers a robust and generous profile, shaped by its deep soils. Aromas of ripe red and black fruits, including cherry and strawberry, are complemented by a powerful tannic structure that reveals remarkable finesse. This well-structured wine is ideal for cellaring, with its optimal drinking window between 6 and 10 years, promising a beautifully refined evolution.

Vinification : The grapes are hand-harvested and fully destemmed, followed by a 3-day cold maceration before fermentation. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in concrete tanks at temperatures ranging from 25°C to 34°C over 15 to 20 days. A gentle tannin extraction is achieved through punch-downs.

Aging : The wine is then aged in French oak barrels, with 15% new oak, for 12 months. After malolactic fermentation, the wine undergoes racking and blending in stainless steel tanks during the winter on fine lees. Finally, it is filtered and bottled.

Located at the foot of the slope, this terroir is made up of reddish-brown soils composed of limestone and flint debris ("chaillots"). The wine is a blend of two plots: Les Valozières and Les Fournières.
