Description
  • Close to the village of Ladoix-Serrigny and in front of the village of Aloxe-Corton, the village of Chorey-les-Beaune produces supple and light red wines and very elegant white wines. There isn't any Premier Cru in this appellation which is quite unusual for Burgundy. The Chorey-les-Beaune appellation was not well known 30 years ago but is now well-appreciated.

Wine tasting
  • Tasting Note
    Brilliant ruby red coloured, this Chorey-lès-Beaune 2010 is elegant and balanced with pretty forest fruit aromas and a hint of liquorice. The tannins are discreet and this is a very pleasant wine to drink from now onwards. (Tasted November 2011)
