The Tollot-Beaut family Domaine is based at Chorey-Les-Beaune, often thought of as a slightly old-fashioned backwater. Their vineyard holdings, however, extend to Beaune, Savigny, Aloxe-Corton and a tiny holding in the Corton Charlemagne vineyard.
The hallmark of their wines is a striking purity of fruit - the reds display a truly succulent quality supported (but never dominated) by judicious use of oak.
It is now Nathalie Tollot who is in charge, alongside other members of this extensive family.
The Tollot-Beaut family domaine, based at the slightly old-fashioned village of Chorey-ls-Beaune, were one of the very first to domaine-bottle their wines, back in the 1920s. True to form, their Corton is as powerful, majestic and full-bodied as ever, and will hugely repay considerable cellaring.
