Aloxe Corton Ravaut 2022 presents a deep ruby color with hints of garnet at the rim. The nose is marked by aromas of black cherry and raspberry, complemented by earthy undertones and subtle spice. The palate is structured, showcasing a medium body with firm tannins and balanced acidity. Flavors of dark berry fruit intermingle with notes of minerality and a light touch of oak, reflecting the region`s distinct terroir. This wine hails from the renowned Aloxe-Corton appellation in the Côte de Beaune, known for its red Burgundies. The Ravaut vineyard is celebrated for its old vines, which typically produce a lower yield of fruit, enhancing the concentration of flavors. Aged in a combination of new and used oak barrels, the result is a wine that offers a glimpse into both tradition and the potential of the 2022 vintage in Burgundy.
