"Brilliant and very intense. Wonderfully stony, minerally, very toasted from the grilled oak, showing thick weight on the midpalate. This is superimpressive, with a silky texture that's to die for, and all that oakiness will die down given the tight concentration in this full-bodied white Burgundy."

Aloxe-Corton is a village AOC in Burgundy's Cote de Beaune, ringing the Corton hill and holding Premier Cru vineyards; it produces mostly firm, structured, earthy Pinot Noir reds built for medium-term aging.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
