Aloxe Corton, Les Fournières, 1er Cru, 2023

Bright, candied raspberry, with tons of fruit sweetness and a sense of brilliance to the fruit. Full of up-front appeal and ripe red fruit. This was harvested straight after the Beaunes at the start of the harvest cycle, so as to preserve freshness. Tollot-Beaut's Fournières vines average 50 years old, planted on poor stony soils, and yield intense but velvety Aloxes.
