Tasting notes

Elegant and refined, this Premier Cru Corton opens with enticing aromas of dark cherry, wild strawberry, and subtle violet, underpinned by earthy forest floor and a whisper of warm spice. On the palate, it delivers bright red fruit alongside notes of cedar and crushed stone, with silky, well-integrated tannins and vibrant acidity lending excellent structure. The finish is long, mineral-driven, and beautifully persistent.

About this wine

Albert Bichot's Domaine du Pavillon represents one of Burgundy's most distinguished estates, with deep roots in the Corton appellation. This Premier Cru red wine showcases the producer's meticulous approach to terroir-driven winemaking, drawing from the prestigious Clos des Maréchaudes vineyard. As a custodian of classic Burgundian craftsmanship, Albert Bichot balances tradition with precision, crafting wines of elegance and structure that reflect their noble origins.

Aloxe-Corton sits at the heart of the Côte de Beaune, where limestone-rich soils and optimal sun exposure create ideal conditions for Pinot Noir. The Clos des Maréchaudes benefits from south-facing slopes that concentrate flavor while maintaining the finesse Burgundy is renowned for. At 13.5% ABV, this Premier Cru achieves the perfect equilibrium between power and refinement, offering sophistication worthy of a fine dining table or intimate château gathering.

Pair this Corton red with beef, venison, game birds, duck, or poultry, its structured tannins and bright acidity complement rich proteins beautifully. Whether enjoyed now or cellared, this is the caliber of wine that rewards serious collectors and discerning palates.
