    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Tollot Beaut, Aloxe Corton, Les Fournières, 1er Cru, 2018

    Warm, sun-ripened berry fruits - notes of damson, Victoria plum and strawberry. An underlying salty, stony note brings life and focus to the finish - reflecting the poor stony soils of this vineyard. The Tollot Beaut's Fournières vines average fifty years old, yielding intense but velvety Aloxes.

    ABV:
    13.5%
    90-92/100

    The 2022 Aloxe-Corton Les Fournières 1er Cru has more Pinoté and delineation on the nose compared to the Les Vercots. The oak is more integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with powdery tannins and moderate depth. A hint of graphite infuses the dark berry fruit with a touch of black pepper on the aftertaste. Give this a couple of years in bottle.
