The 2017 Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Les Valozières displays a spicy, earthy bouquet of forest floor and berries, followed by a medium-bodied, open-knit but chewy palate. It isn't as tight-knit and forbidding as Aloxe-Corton can be, but it isn't the fleshiest or most concentrated wine in the cellar either.
