Domaine Arnoux Père & Fils is a family domaine based in Aloxe-Corton, a village appellation sitting at the northern end of the Côte de Beaune in Burgundy. The name suggests a multigenerational operation, with the père et fils structure common among traditional Burgundian estates that have passed vineyards and winemaking knowledge through family lines. Their focus is on red wine from this historically significant corner of the Côte d'Or.
Aloxe-Corton is one of Burgundy's most distinctive communes, producing Pinot Noir wines at both village and premier cru level, as well as being home to Corton, the only red grand cru on the Côte de Beaune. Village-level Aloxe-Corton typically produces structured, relatively firm Pinot Noir with earthy depth and good aging potential, reflecting the iron-rich limestone soils that run through this part of the hillside. The appellation sits between the Côte de Nuits to the north and the softer-styled villages further south, giving its wines a character that bridges both.
The domaine's current range includes a village-level Aloxe-Corton from Pinot Noir, a wine that represents the foundational expression of this appellation, structured enough to reward short-term cellaring while remaining accessible in its youth with the red fruit and mineral qualities characteristic of the area.
