Louis Latour Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Les Chaillots – Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru – Red – 2017:
The Premier Cru of Aloxe-Corton: Power and Elegance from Burgundy
The Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru “Les Chaillots” by Maison Louis Latour is a profound expression of Pinot Noir from the Côte de Beaune. Sourced from a Premier Cru vineyard whose name refers to its stony soil (‘caillou’), this wine beautifully marries the finesse typical of Beaune with the robust structure often found in the Côte de Nuits.
Tasting Notes (Typical Vintage)
- Color: A deep, brilliant ruby hue.
- Nose: Intense and layered, offering initial aromas of dark berries (blackcurrant, cherry) that mature into elegant notes of forest floor, licorice, and walnut.
- Palate: The mouthfeel is structured and full-bodied, yet balanced by very fine-grained tannins and a vibrant acidity. It delivers a long, complex, and harmonious finish.
Pairing & Service
This is a cellar-worthy wine (potential of 10-15 years) that demands rich, sophisticated cuisine. Serve at 59-61°F (15-16°C) to fully appreciate its depth and complexity.
- Suggested Pairings: Herb-crusted rack of lamb, Beef Wellington, duck breast with cherry glaze, or wild mushroom risotto.
