Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Les Valozières Comte Senard
Information
About the producer

Domaine Comte Senard is nestled in the heart of the charming Burgundy village of Aloxe-Corton. The vineyard was established in 1857 by Jules Senard, who passionately developed his two hectares of vines. Today it boasts ten hectares of vines, including eight hectares of Pinot Noir red grapes and two hectares of Chardonnay. Convinced that to produce great wines, quality raw materials are essential, the winemaker applies the same meticulous care in the cellar as they do in the vineyards. Well aware of the current environmental concerns and with a view to protecting biodiversity, they carry out each step in the vineyard with great respect for the soil and the environment and is currently in the process of converting to organic agricultural practices. After conducting harvests entirely by hand, the vinification process is carried out with minimal intervention and only minute amounts of sulphur are added to allow the fruit to express its full range of aromas. Domaine Comte Senard offers authentic vintages reflecting the exceptional terroir of Burgundy.

About the wine

Right next to the Coton-Bressandes grand cru, this Aloxe-Corton premier cru Les Valozières is decidedly elegant. The domain grew its Pinot Noir sustainably and harvested it by hand. A cold, prefermentary vinification was carried out before an 18-month maturation in oak barrels (50% new wood). This cuvée can be enjoyed in its youth, revealing a beautiful balance of tannic structure and lively acidity. It will pair perfectly with a dish of small game or white meat.
