{"product_id":"aloxe-corton-premier-cru-tollot-beaut-fils-1993","title":"Les Fournières Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru 1993","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 1993 red wine comes from the Les Fournières vineyard, a Premier Cru site in the historic village appellation of Aloxe-Corton. Located in the northern part of the Côte de Beaune at the foot of the Montagne de Corton, the area borders the renowned Grands Crus of Corton and Corton-Charlemagne. The 1993 vintage in this region achieved a score of 85 points, characterized by a good structure and a classic style. The vines here are cultivated at altitudes between 200 and 300 meters on red-brown soils rich in limestone slices, potassium, and phosphoric acid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wine is made from Pinot Noir, an elegant blue grape that is the cornerstone of red wine production in Burgundy, though it is also widely cultivated in regions like Champagne, Germany, Oregon, and California. Burgundy itself, located in eastern France, was historically shaped by medieval monks who meticulously mapped the area's countless terroirs. The region has turned terroir into an art form with its intricate system of climats, where the calcareous soils provide the foundation for highly sought-after wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDomaine Tollot-Beaut, also known as Tollot-Beaut \u0026amp; Fils, produced and estate-bottled this wine. Founded in 1880 by François Tollot in Chorey-lès-Beaune, the estate is recognized as one of the most reputable small family wineries in Burgundy. A significant historical milestone for the domaine occurred in 1921 when they became one of the first in the region to bottle their own wines, rather than selling grapes or barrels to négociants—a pioneering decision made decades before it became common practice. Today, the estate is managed by the fifth generation of the family, cousins Nathalie, Olivier, and Jean-Paul Tollot, who oversee 24 hectares spread across Chorey-lès-Beaune, Savigny-lès-Beaune, Beaune, and Aloxe-Corton.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Tollot-Beaut","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57106552226118,"sku":null,"price":1419.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-623_db1b0232-671c-4c63-8ff5-4ff65bdea445.jpg?v=1786448464","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.se\/en\/products\/aloxe-corton-premier-cru-tollot-beaut-fils-1993","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
