Domaine Tollot Beaut
All products from this vendorThe Tollot-Beaut family Domaine is based at Chorey-Les-Beaune, often thought of as a slightly old-fashioned backwater. Their vineyard holdings, however, extend to Beaune, Savigny, Aloxe-Corton and a tiny holding in the Corton Charlemagne vineyard. The hallmark of their wines is a striking purity of fruit - the reds display a truly succulent quality supported (but never dominated) by judicious use of oak. It is now Nathalie Tollot who is in charge, alongside other members of this extensive family.
Pinot Noir
All products from this varietalPinot Noir has very aromatic profile, very fresh acidity and low level of quaite soft tannins. The nature of Pinot Noir wine is its flavors of red berries and cherry (red sour cherries in lighter wines and cooked black cherries in bold examples). This wine matures very exating, developing notes of berry jam, violets, leather, moss and mushrooms.
Aloxe-Corton is one of the oldest wine-producing villages in Burgundy, located near the town of Beaune. The soil contains limestone that saturates the berries with nitrogen, helping the process of fermentation, while clay allows the grapes to retain sufficient moisture from rainwater especially in hot weather. The local wines love silence as they slowly ripen in the bottles developing a very rich and complex taste. Having reached a certain age, the wine appears in all its glory, showing completeness, a soft taste and an intense fruitiness.
