Michel Mallard Aloxe Corton 1er Cru La Toppe Gaja 2013 was marked by aBright black cherry, plum and soft blueberry lead with a lifted, structured AloxeCorton profile. Subtle florals, gentle spice and a fine mineral edge sit underneath, giving quiet depth and refined power. The palate is fresh, concentrated and beautifully balanced dark fruit, savoury detail and firm tannin carrying a long, pure, dry finish. A poised, muscular expression of La Toppe.
