"Chocolate, roasted spices, and intense black fruit aromas can be found in the nose of the backward, highly extracted 2003 Corton-Renardes Vieilles Vignes Reserve (red). This concentrated wine is medium to full-bodied, broad-shouldered, and firmly structured. Tar, licorice, and jammy plums are intermingled with black cherry syrup in its tannin-laden character as well as in its exceptionally long finish."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
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.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
