This is a fleshy, dense and spicy Corton, built for long cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLes Maréchaudes lies on the south east side of the hill, straddling Aloxe-Corton and Ladoix-Serrigny, in the lower part of the slope. The soils there are more clayey and richer in iron oxide, hence their characteristic reddish tint. This terroir profile produces Corton that are broader shouldered and more immediately generous than those from the top of the slope, without losing any of the tannic framework that marks out the Grand Cru. It is a consistent climat, which comes through warm vintages as well as cooler ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the critics say about this cuvée\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe scores below cover the latest vintages of the cuvée, all vintages taken together.

The Moulin Foulot fief it grew out of dates back to the 11th century. Bought in 2012 by Olivier Halley, the estate has since expanded its vineyard: 65 hectares across around a hundred plots, farmed under certified organic agriculture, giving five Grands Crus, twenty Premiers Crus and a dozen village and regional appellations.
