Tasting notes
Nose of figs, plums, cassis, black raspberry, roses, wet leaves, mint. Full palette of figs, plums, black raspberry, wet leaves, dry stones, tannins and acidity balance each other, both medium plus. Very elegant, structured, and delicious. (R. - Cellar Tracker; 2012 vintage; tasted 22/02/2016)

Expert's View
"The Aloxe-Corton premier cru is mid-weight and the best from ‘03, ‘05 and ’09. Follin-Arbelet Pinot Noir is purple and you can access young and fruity or bottle aged two to three year old wine that is still fresh, perfect for ease of drinking -cracking Burgundy at an affordable price.” ~ Clear Wine Co's Wine Expert
