Crafted from carefully selected old vines (Vieilles Vignes), this Aloxe-Corton cuvée reflects the strength and nobility of one of Burgundy’s most renowned villages.
Old vines naturally produce lower yields, resulting in grapes with greater concentration and aromatic complexity. Planted on classic clay-limestone soils, the vineyards benefit from ideal exposure that promotes slow, balanced ripening while preserving freshness.

🍷 Domaine Philippe Girard – Savigny-lès-Beaune, Côte de Beaune
Located in Savigny-lès-Beaune, at the northern gateway to the Côte de Beaune, Domaine Philippe Girard is a family estate deeply committed to producing wines that express purity, balance and terroir precision. More than a winery, the domaine represents a philosophy: quality above all, from vineyard to bottle.
The vineyards are planted on classic clay-limestone soils, the backbone of great Burgundy wines. These soils provide natural drainage while preserving enough moisture to allow slow, balanced ripening — essential for achieving concentration without excess.
Each parcel is managed individually to respect its microclimate, slope orientation and soil composition. This parcel-by-parcel approach ensures that every cuvée reflects its specific origin rather than a standardized house style.
Low yields are deliberately maintained to enhance aromatic intensity and structural depth, particularly for Pinot Noir, which thrives on precision and subtlety.
