Aloxe-Corton Les Parcellaires de Saulx 2021

The wine

This estate, known as Les Parcellaires de Saulx, is located in the Côte de Beaune, nestled between the illustrious communes of Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault. As its name suggests, the estate traditionally releases plot-by-plot wines to reveal the typicality of each of its climats. This Aloxe-Corton is made from Pinot Noir grapes cultivated in soils rich in clay and limestone. The clay imparts a certain density to the wine, which the limestone balances out with a mineral freshness.
In the winery, the wine matures for a year to 15 months in used casks, which prevent the wine from being too woody on the palate. With an average ageing potential of just under ten years, silky tannins, round, rich fruit and dynamic hints of sweet spices, this wine is sure to win you over.
