Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Red 2022 | Wine from Domaine Chapuis Frères

Red wine Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru 2022 Domaine Chapuis Frères

Brothers Romain and Jean-Guillaume Chapuis, who come from a family line rooted in Burgundy viticulture, launched the "Chapuis Frères" estate in 2009 in Pommard. With 4 hectares of vines and purchases of often organic grapes, their range includes Savigny les Beaune, Chorey les Beaune and Pernand-Vergelesses. Following the success, they moved to Ladoix, adopting a low-intervention approach, favouring indigenous yeasts and limiting the use of sulphur and oak barrels. The wines, harvested by hand, are distinguished by their aromatic freshness and their immediate drinkability, reflecting the Burgundian terroir.

This 2022 Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Red from Domaine Chapuis Frères embodies the winemaking excellence of brothers Romain and Jean-Guillaume Chapuis, young and dynamic heirs to a winemaking lineage. Since 2009, under the name Chapuis & Chapuis, they have been passionately running their own estate. Made from three prestigious plots at the foot of the Corton hill, this 1er cru d'Aloxe is distinguished by its finesse and unique character. Contrary to expectations of an intense masculine profile, this wine dazzles with its sweetness, revealing delicate aromas of raspberry, cherry, peony, elderberry, sour cherry and liquorice. The vinification, with a hint of sulphur and without filtration, sublimates the purity of the fruit. The exceptional 2022 vintage offers a perfect balance, with ripe and harmonious tannins. The imprint of Romain, trained by Philippe Pacalet, stands out in this remarkable success. A wine to be savoured now, the promise of authentic pleasure.
