The Domain: Domaine Nudant has a rich history that dates back to 1453 when Guillaume Nudant was already a vinegrower in Aloxe Corton. The estate saw significant development in the 1950s under André Nudant, who expanded the vineyard. His son, Jean-René, joined the business in 1978, and 25 years later, Guillaume took over from his father.
The vineyard covers 16 hectares (39.5 acres) across Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits, offering 17 appellations ranging from regional to Villages, 1er Crus, and Grands Crus. The Aloxe Corton "Les Valozieres" 2022 is a fine wine marked by its terroir, with a stony ground that gives it a big mouthfeel yet remains silky. The wine is made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes, with vines averaging 70 years old.
The winery practices sustainable farming and was certified HVE in 2019. The wine undergoes traditional winemaking techniques, including hand-picking grapes, cold pre-fermentation maceration, and aging in oak barrels. The result is a firm, full-bodied wine with opulent aromas of black fruits, flowers, honey, and grilled almonds.
