The Aloxe-Corton "Les Brunettes et Planchots" 2022 from Domaine du Château Philippe le Hardi is a red Burgundy produced in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, at the foot of the famous hill of Corton. Made exclusively from pinot noir, it combines the characteristic depth of the appellation with a fine, elegant texture.
This cuvée takes its name from the lieux-dits "Les Brunettes" and "Les Planchots". It offers a refined expression of the Aloxe-Corton terroir, with a fine balance between red fruit, structure and minerality.
Tasting
Colour
An intense, luminous ruby-red colour.
Nose
The bouquet reveals seductive aromas of morello cherry, raspberry and ripe red fruit. Spicy, slightly woody and delicately earthy nuances bring further depth and complexity.
Palate
The attack is ample and expressive, carried by generous red fruit. The body is structured yet retains a velvety texture, with fine, delicate tannins. An elegant stony minerality brings freshness and accompanies a long, balanced and flavourful finish.
The Aloxe-Corton "Les Brunettes et Planchots" 2022 is a Burgundian pinot noir that is at once refined, structured and delicious. Already seductive after light aeration, it also has fine ageing potential and will gradually gain in complexity.
