Tasting Notes

85-87
Vinous Neal Martin - 17 Jan 24
The 2022 Aloxe-Corton Village has a light and airy bouquet compared to what I feel is a superior Pommard Village. It never quite gets out of first gear, aromatically. The palate is a little chewy on the entry, with slightly rustic tannins and an off-dry finish. Not the strongest card in the pack; I would broach this over the next 4-6 years.
