Domaine Henri Delagrange Aloxe-Corton Les Caillettes Cote de Beaune, France 2015 Vina Vik with firm but savory tanninsThis Aloxe Corton has a silky, rather dark, garnet red color. On the nose, and when young, spring aromas mingle with those of small red fruits (raspberry, strawberry, cherry) and black (blackcurrant, blackberry). With age, it will develop more powerful essences: peony and jasmine, prune and pistachio, leather and truffle, jam and brandy. On the palate, its generosity and elegance make it quite simply charming and very pleasant.
