The village of Aloxe-Corton, situated three kms. to the north of Beaune (Burgundy, France) is full of history. The vineyards started in the second century BC. The properties were initially given the name of Curtis, with Aloxe Corton taking pride in the title of Corton Othonis, contracted to Courthon and it is now known as Corton.

With a population of 180, the title’s territory spreads over 284 hectares of marly soil for the white wines and of reddish-brown chalk soil for the reds. 96 hectares are categorized as Aloxe-Corton, 38 as Aloxe-Corton Premier Cru, 101 hectares as Corton red and white Grand Cru, and 49 hectares as Grand Cru Corton Charlemagne.

Aloxe-Corton is renowned for its production of red wines, 100% pinot noir, among the richest in tannin in the wine-growing sector of Burgundy. Their structure, which is robust, makes for very powerful wines which develop their delicacy after several years of growing.

The white wines, 100% chardonnay, including the famous Corton Charlemagne, show a fine golden color and a fragrance which contribute to the wide renown of the Aloxe-Corton vineyards.
