If you are coming from Dijon, it is at Ladoix that the Côte de Beaune begins. Ladoix shares with Aloxe-Corton and Pernand-Vergelesses the honor of producing the famous wines of the hill of Corton. The appellation was instituted in 1937. The colour of this wine often suggests that of blackcurrants – bright garnet with purplish highlights. The bouquet is full of strawberry, cherry jam or brandied cherries. Slight clove notes are also met with coffee and cocoa. In the mouth this wine is tender, supple, rounded, full, and structured with just the right amount of tannins. The estate is certified Biodynamic. Voted “Winemakers of the Year” by the Guide Hachette for 2021. It goes well with mild cheeses such as Vacherin, Reblochon or Cîteaux.
