Aloxe-Corton “Les Boutières” Vieille Vigne

Aloxe-Corton

Les Boutières

Grape variety

Pinot Noir

Local soil Composed of limestone and clayey marls.

Wine-making Manuel handy harvested in small boxes. In the winery, a strict selection of each grape is done by hand on a conveyor and a destemming is done. Following, a long fermentation in open wooden vats is done during 20 days before a pneumatic press. Without pumping and by gravity, the future wine is transferred down in the cellars into oak barrels.

Maturation in oak barrels for 15 months (including 25% new oak and the balance in barrel of one and two years).

This Aloxe-Corton happily accompanies all grilled or roasted (white & red) meats (duck, pork, beefs ) and then simmered in sauce dishes (stews, meat sauces wines). Then this is the perfect keeper of the great dishes and game (after 8 years) and of course all the classic cheeses. A nice and good value.
