Aloxe Corton, Les Fournières, 1er Cru, 2020
A coiled energy and stony minerality give a real sense of drive and purpose here. The fruit is crisp and persistent, notes of cherry, sloe and bramble, gripped by finely chiselled tannins, finishing on savoury notes of iron and spice. The Tollot Beaut's Fournieres vines average fifty years old, planted on poor stony soils, yield intense but velvety Aloxes.
critic reviews
The 2020 Aloxe-Corton Les Fournières 1er Cru is ripe and juicy on the nose: strawberry and raspberry, the oak here more pronounced compared to the Les Vercots. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe, saturated tannins and again, here, I find the new oak more pronounced and perhaps just detracting a little from its delineation and mineralité on the finish. Yet once that is fully subsumed, this could turn into quite a substantial Aloxe-Corton.
