Domaine Michel Mallard et Fils - Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru 'Les Maréchaudes' 2021

Michel Mallard and sons' vineyard is located in the commune of Ladoix-Serrigny, a small village at the junction between the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits. Vine growers from father to son for five generations, the vineyard has expanded over time and now cultivates 11 hectares of vineyards. Maryse and Patrick Mallard, at the head of this wine company, take care of this heritage in producing wines in Burgundy, Côte de Nuits-Villages, Chorey-les-Beaune, Savigny-les-Beaune, Ladoix, Aloxe-Corton, Corton and Corton-Charlemagne appellations.

Les Maréchaudes' extends over the direct eastern side of the Corton Hill in the commune of Aloxe-Corton. The meaning of this climat’s name would indicate a marshy area located at the intersection between the villages of Aloxe-Corton and Ladoix-Serrigny (MARESCHE meaning swamp in old French). Since this time, these lands have been enhanced for the planting and cultivation of vines.

Les Maréchaudes reveals itself on the nose by an expressive bouquet of blackberry fruits, liquorice, cloves and a certain minerality. In the mouth, one first notices its elegance with a smooth tannic sensation. With a good degree of density, persistency, dignity, it is a truly harmonious wine ! Can be kept for many years.
