Staff Notes:

"The 2019 Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Clos du Chapitre opens in the glass with notes of earthy cherries, burning embers, cassis, black truffle and smoked meats. Medium to full-bodied, deep and elegantly muscular, with a fleshy core of fruit and powdery structuring tannins, this derives from an early-ripening, well-drained site of which Follin is one of only two proprietors." 91-93 William Kelley, Wine Advocate

"Here the fresh and overtly floral-suffused nose offers fruit that is derived more from the red side of the spectrum where additional breadth is present in the form of humus and earth. The finer but not denser flavors possess a lovely underlying tension that contrasts somewhat with the rustic, balanced and very firm finale." 89-91 Allen Meadows, Burghound
