Description
Aloxe-Corton Rouge 2022 | Domaine Arnoux Père & Fils
The Domaine Arnoux Père & Fils, located in the heart of Burgundy, is a key reference in the Aloxe-Corton appellation. With a rich family history and meticulous attention to every step of production, the estate manages plots of great diversity. Their wines, primarily made from the Pinot Noir grape, are known for their finesse and aging potential. The plot dedicated to the Aloxe-Corton Rouge 2022 is cultivated with respect for the terroir and Burgundian traditions.
The Aloxe-Corton Rouge 2022 is made from Pinot Noir, planted in 1977 on an 80-are plot at an altitude of 235 meters. The terroir, composed of reddish-brown soils scattered with limestone debris and flint, gives this wine unique complexity and richness. The vines benefit from a south/southwest exposure, promoting perfect grape ripening. After manual harvesting, the grapes undergo a cold pre-fermentation maceration, followed by a fermentation period of about twenty days with light pigeages and remontages. The wine is then aged for 12 months in barrels, 15 to 20% of which are new, and then rests in vats for 3 to 4 months before bottling.
Tasting Notes
The Aloxe-Corton Rouge 2022 stands out with its deep ruby color. On the nose, it reveals delicate aromas of small red fruits, such as currant and raspberry, combined with spicy notes of pepper and nutmeg. Over time, these aromas evolve towards candied fruit notes. On the palate, it is a wine of character, offering a beautiful power and generous texture. Its robust structure fully reflects its terroir. Intense, yet refined and elegant, it presents a long finish and perfect harmony.
Food and Wine Pairings
This Aloxe-Corton Rouge 2022 will pair perfectly with grilled or sauced red meats, such as beef or lamb. It also goes well with roasted poultry, and more exotic dishes like Peking duck.

Serving Advice
This wine is best served between 14 and 16°C, after some aeration or light decanting to release its full aromatic palette. It can be stored in a cellar for 4 to 10 years, depending on your tasting preferences.
