Description
This Aloxe-Corton is made from two hectares situated in four parcels; Petits Vercots, Cras, Crapoussuets and Boutières. The sunny vintage has imbued the wine with a pleasing sweetness and rounded out the Aloxe tannins. The nose has an open-knit, red fruit character and some pleasing ferrous touches, while the palate is approachable and creamy.

Critics reviews
The 2022 Aloxe-Corton Village comes from four separate parcels that are vinified together. With a mixture of red and blueberry fruit on the nose, this is initially timid but gains confidence with aeration. The medium-bodied palate has fine tannins. It’s a composed and harmonious Aloxe-Corton. Perhaps all that is missing, and it is only a niggle, is a bit of length.

More crimson than purple. The fruit is just perfectly ripe, not too exotic, quality pinot more elegant than most village Aloxe wines are. Good acidity behind, a few tannins but nothing rustic.

From Les Petits Vercots, Boutières, Les Cras and Crapousuets.
Ripe and very pretty aromas of red and dark currant, violet, newly turned earth, and a hint of crushed anise lead to rich, generous, and round medium-weight flavours that possess both fine volume and mid-palate density. All this is wrapped in a dusty, long, and balanced finale where only a trace of rusticity is present. This always seems to outperform relative to its level chez Tollot, and 2022 only adds to that reputation.
