Terroir of Aloxe Corton appellation


This Côte de Beaune AOC has existed since 1938. Its vineyards extend over a surface area of around 122 ha to the south of the Corton mountain. The terroir of the Aloxe Corton appellation is characterized by reddish or calcareous, slightly clayey soils containing flint debris at an altitude of 200 to 300 m. This terroir also has a good potassium and phosphoric acid content. The stony and marly soils, depending on location, are favorable to the production of supple, elegant, fine wines, while the marly soils produce firm, complex wines. The vines face due east. The climate is temperate with continental trends. The variety of soil types, drainage, grape variety and climate give a wide range of wines. Wines from the south, for example, are more structured and solid, while those from the north are more supple, with fruity aromas. The vineyards of this appellation include 14 Premiers crus, the best-known of which are Les Clos des Maréchaudes, Fournières and Valozières. The illustrious Grands Crus Corton and Corton-Charlemagne straddle the commune's 3 geographical areas: Aloxe Corton, Ladoix-Serrigny and Pernand-Vergelesses.

The Aloxe-Corton appellation is a wine-growing region in the Côtes de Beaune and Nuits in Burgundy, France. It is renowned for its red wines, produced mainly from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. Aloxe-Corton wines are often referred to as mountain wines, due to their provenance from the climats located on the Corton mountain. The most prestigious vintages are produced in the Clos du Chapitre by Domaine Chevalier Père. Aloxe-Corton wines are particularly well-suited to red meats.

The best producers in the Aloxe Corton appellation


This village appellation comprises red wines (around 98.5% of production) and white wines (1.5%). The reds are fairly dark in color, with shades of deep ruby, garnet or crimson, depending on the climate. In their youth, they have red and black fruit aromas. With age, aromas evolve towards jasmine and candied fruit, with notes of truffle, mushroom, leather and cinnamon. Red wines are powerful, robust, aromatic and refined, with vibrant acidity. After a few years in the cellar, they become fuller-bodied, with velvety tannins. These are wines for laying down
-Coche dury: this estate cultivates almost 9 ha of vines on small plots spread over 6 communes in the Côte de Beaune region. It favors a policy of very low yields and meticulous vinification. His red wines are fragrant, intense and powerful, with good ageing potential. They are full-bodied, concentrated wines with balanced acidity. The domaine is renowned for its fine Mersault wines and its Grand Cru Corton-Charlemagne, not forgetting white Burgundy. The diversity of wines in terms of aroma, consistency and complexity of flavor depends on terroir and viticulture. Coche Dury is one of those estates that express the elegance of its terroir.
-Faiveley: this 115-hectare family estate in the village of Saint-Geroges is one of the largest in Burgundy. The majority of its vineyards are located in prestigious crus appellations such as Côte de Beaune and Côte des Nuits. The domaine produces 54 different wines, some of which are Grands Crus (10 ha of vineyards) and Premiers Crus (25 ha). The domaine's red wines are distinguished by their complexity, firm tannins and earthy, mineral aftertaste. On tasting, they reveal flavors of red fruits, spices, vanilla and oak, with a pleasing length of coconut.
-Louis Latour: this estate was founded in 1797. Through 11 generations, this prestigious estate has increased its planted vineyard area. Each year, it produces around 150 different wines, and 8.5 million bottles. The estate covers 48 ha, including 27 ha of Grands Crus (17 Grands Crus de Corton and 10 Grands Crus Corton-Charlemagne). Its red wines are controversial. They are heated to 70°C for 3 seconds before bottling. On tasting, these wines are round, quite fruity and slightly creamy, with a sophisticated, fresh mouthfeel and good acidity. The wines may have some minerality and herbaceous notes. Corton-Charlemagne, on the other hand, is a wine with little expressive aroma and strong tannins in its youth, but which will develop a creamy richness and aromatic complexity after a few years' cellaring. The type of wine that interests both the drinker and the connoisseur.
-Bonneau du Martray: wines from this estate are served at a private birthday dinner for Queen Elizabeth II of England. This estate belongs to the American Enos Stanley Kroenke after it was sold by Bault de la Morinière, an heir to the estate. The latter has made great efforts to improve the quality of the vines and winemaking. His 24 ha vineyards produce two Grands Crus: Corton and Corton-Charlemagne. This flagship wine boosts the domaine's international reputation. The domaine's wines are refined yet powerful, with exceptional aromatic qualities and velvety tannins. Intense wines that never saturate.
-Bouchard père et fils: this estate was bought by Champagne house Joseph Henriot in 1995. It is one of Burgundy's oldest and largest winegrowing estates. The estate comprises 130 ha, divided into 74 ha of Premier Cru and 12 Grand Cru. It includes prestigious appellations such as Montrachet, Corton-Charlemagne, Bonnes-Mares, Mersault-Perrière...
