Aloxe Corton
See Aloxe Corton producers See a list of Aloxe Corton wines
Thes two grand cru vineyards Corton and Corton-Charlemagne lie astride three villages at the northern end of the Côte de Beaune - Ladoix, Aloxe-Corton and Pernand Vergelesses. The main body of the hill of Corton faces due south, with an extended flank exposed to the east, and another facing westwards. The white wines mostly come from west and south-west expositions, along with a narrow band around the top of the hill.
The Emperor Charlemagne owned vines here in the eight century, and legend has it that his wife insisted he planted white grapes so as not to spill red wine down his beard and clothes. Corton Charlemagne is always white and there is also a theoretical grand cru appellation called just Charlemagne, which is never used. Corton is almost entirely red but there are a few white wines too.
Ladoix is a rarely seen appellation as most wine here are sold as Côte de Beaune Villages. Aloxe Corton is better-known, but as with Ladoix the best vineyards have been designated as Corton and Corton Charlemagne.

Wonderfully rich kirsch cherry and raspberry notes bound from the glass with subtle hints of development – touches of underbrush add yet further complexity. The palate is equally as intriguing, warm and fresh but with the gentle crunch of tannins one expects from the 2007 vintage. ... MORE |

Every year Camille Giroud provides us with a textbook Corton and this year is no exception. The marvellous Rognets is particularly stylish in 2006 and yet has an extra weight of fruit at the back before the pure, fine aftertaste kicks in. Quite superb. |

There is a wonderful depth of flavour in this wine (a testament to David’s decision to harvest relatively late) but this mingles seamlessly with a delightful freshness that makes it a joy to taste. It is a sophisticated wine, with plenty of weight and a ripe, rewarding finish. |
