The Aloxe-Corton appellation

The Aloxe-Corton appellation, located in the Côte de Beaune, is famous for its powerful, complex wines. Unique in Burgundy, it produces both red wines, mainly from Pinot Noir, and white wines from Chardonnay, with several parcels classified as Grand Crus, including the famous Corton and Corton-Charlemagne.

Climate and Terroir of Aloxe Corton

The semi-continental climate of this region, with its hot summers and harsh winters, favors slow ripening of the grapes. The soils of the appellation are predominantly clay-limestone, with a significant presence of stones, bringing minerality and finesse to the wines. The gentle slopes of the Corton mountain provide excellent exposure to the sun, particularly for the grand crus.

Specificity of Aloxe Corton Wines

The red wines of Aloxe-Corton are distinguished by their marked tannic structure, aromas of red and black fruits, and spicy, undergrowth notes when mature. As they age, they gain in complexity and depth, offering notes of leather, licorice and truffle. Fewer white wines are known for their elegance, with aromas of dried fruit, honey and minerality.

The Best Aloxe Corton Vintages

Vintages to watch for Aloxe-Corton include 2005, 2010, 2015, 2016 and 2019, renowned for their concentration, balance and elegance.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What proportion of reds and whites does this Aloxe-Corton selection include?

The selection brings together 39 red wines and just one white. Pinot Noir is the main grape variety listed for the reds; the white is made from Chardonnay.

Is Aloxe-Corton Les Caillettes classified differently from the other cuvées?

No: Delagrange Henri’s 2022 Aloxe-Corton Les Caillettes is classified as Village, like all the wines in this category. Its name distinguishes a cuvée, but in this case it does not indicate a Premier Cru classification.

Which Aloxe-Corton wines should I compare for a first discovery of the producers?

The 2022 Aloxe-Corton wines from Maratray-Dubreuil and Rapet are two benchmarks to compare from the same vintage, both in 75 cl bottles. To broaden the tasting to include a named cuvée, you can add Delagrange Henri’s 2022 Les Caillettes.

How are the vintages distributed across the Aloxe-Corton selection?

The 2021 and 2022 vintages are the most represented, with 11 wines each, followed by 2023 with 8 wines and 2024 with 5. The 2020 and 2019 vintages have 4 wines and one wine respectively; their age alone is not enough to determine their maturity.

Which bottle sizes are available among these Aloxe-Corton wines?

The selection includes 32 wines in 75 cl bottles, 5 in 150 cl magnums and 3 in 37.5 cl half-bottles. These sizes make it possible to adapt the quantity to the number of guests, but they are not necessarily available for every cuvée or vintage.
