Region: Burgundy, France
Appellation: Aloxe-Corton
Type/Style: Red Wine
Grapes: Pinot Noir

Les Valozières is one of Aloxe-Corton's most celebrated Premier Cru vineyards, and in Pierre-Olivier Garcia's hands it becomes a wine of remarkable finesse and precision. Garcia's meticulous berry-by-berry sorting, whole-cluster fermentation, and restrained cellar work allow the vineyard to speak clearly. Aromas of wild cherry, blackberry, rose petals, and spice lead into a palate that combines the power typical of Aloxe-Corton with an uncommon sense of elegance. Fine tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long mineral finish suggest a wine capable of aging beautifully, though its purity of fruit makes it compelling from the start. A benchmark example of modern Burgundy from one of the region's most exciting young producers.
