Graphite, black peppercorn, and deep dark fruit note on the nose. After opening, a definite barnyard note with fruit undertones. A very different type of syrah, unadulterated and no tricks in the making of it. Quite nice! — 5 years ago
Briljant Bourgogne! Underbara smaker av mörka körsbär, mandel, kanel och rostade fat. — 7 years ago
This is the vintage Xavier really got going. Lovely nose of spice and mineral. Big candies cherries and some sour cherries as well. Palate is soft and elegant with huge fruit. Sappy and spicey with lovely freshness. Good mouthfeel and terrific value. Needs maybe 15 minutes and then raring to go. Terrific sweetness of fruit smothered with spice. — 7 years ago

Soft and velvety, with some fruit and a bit of pepper. — 6 years ago
40% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 30% Carignan. Bright black fruits on the nose. Dark plums, medium acid and body, lingering tannins and a mouth-coating chalkiness from the minerals. Very food friendly. — 6 years ago

Aloxe Corton continues to be massively underrated. Gorgeously deep and refined aromas of Black cherry, spice and some hints of oak being absorbed. Palate is complex and structured like this cuvee normally is but with so much fruit, complexity and spice. Incredible palate presence and much density and sweetness. This needs and hour but then is a terrific terrific value. Will age for 10-12 years easy. — 7 years ago

Fabulous for the money. Steely acidity, nice minerality, crisp, crisp, crisp. Think Asian Cuisine — 6 years ago
This is a delicious, crisp and light wine. — 6 years ago
Sjukt gott! Härligt, lätt med fina smygande smaker av krusbär, ljus stenfrukt och lätt mineralitet! Detta kan man dricka mycket av. Perfekt som sällskap eller till en snäll fisk. — 7 years ago
