Aloxe-Corton Premier Cru Clos des Maréchaudes is a famed Burgundy red from the Côte de Beaune. This Premier Cru vineyard, lying at the foot of the Corton hill, enjoys an exceptional terroir. Its south-easterly exposure ensures optimal ripening, while the limestone-rich soils lend the wine complexity and finesse.
This Pinot Noir delivers remarkable depth and structure. In the glass, it shows a deep ruby hue with garnet reflections. The nose is intense, offering aromas of black cherries, wild berries, and violets. Subtle notes of spice, earth, and toasted oak add layers of intrigue.
On the palate, this Aloxe-Corton Premier Cru is full-bodied yet beautifully balanced. Ripe red and black fruit flavours dominate, complemented by hints of liquorice and dried herbs. Silky tannins provide structure, while bright acidity ensures elegance and longevity. A long, mineral-driven finish highlights its exceptional terroir.
Careful vinification enhances the wine’s character. Traditional fermentation with natural yeasts allows pure fruit expression. Maturation in French oak, often with a proportion of new barrels, adds depth without overpowering the wine’s freshness.
This Clos des Maréchaudes develops beautifully with age. Five to fifteen years in the cellar will reveal deeper complexity and softer tannins. Over time, earthy and truffle notes emerge, making it a rewarding choice for patient collectors.
This wine pairs beautifully with classic Burgundian dishes. Try it with coq au vin, roast duck, or mushroom risotto. Hard cheeses, such as Comté or aged Gouda, also enhance its flavours.
Aloxe-Corton Premier Cru Clos des Maréchaudes is a fine example of Côte de Beaune’s pedigree. Its balance, complexity, and ageing potential make it a superb investment for any wine enthusiast.
