Score 86/100 · Drink 2023-2027, Neal Martin, Mar 2023
The 2017 Aloxe-Corton Clos de Chapitre 1er Cru has a rustic nose, with plenty of undergrowth/damp mossy scents filtering through the dark berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and a prickle of black pepper, cohesive but just missing some weight towards the finish. Drinking perfectly now, I can't see how this will reward long-term cellaring.

Barrel sample. Ripe dark-red fruit, sweet-fruited and fragrant. The tannins are a little drier here than on the straight village Aloxe, a little more severe, for now at least. (JH)
