Ladoix

The Ladoix appellation is designated for red and white (from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay respectively)  wines produced  in the commune of Ladoix-Serrigny in Côte de Beaune of Burgundy.  Red wines are in the majority (three-quarters) . Some of the Premier Cru vineyards of Ladoix-Serrigny are part of the Aloxe-Corton AOC of the neighbouring village rather than of Ladoix AOC, and vinified and sold as Aloxe-Corton Premier Cru. There are 11 climats within the Ladoix AOC that are designated as Premier Cru vineyards: La Corvée , Le Clou d’Orge , La Micaude, Basses Mourottes, Hautes Mourottes (Red & white Wines) Les Buis, Les Joyeuses, Bois Roussot (Red wines only) Les Grêchons, En Naget, Le Rognet et Corton (White Wines only) The climats located within the commune of Ladoix-Serrigny but are classified as Aloxe-Corton Premiers Crus (red wines only) are: Clos des Maréchaudes,  La Maréchaude , Les Petites Lolières, Les Moutottes,  La Coutière, La Toppe au Vert. The Grand Cru appellations of the Corton hill are overlapping in some areas, and are shared among three communes; Pernand-Vergelesses, Aloxe-Corton (major part) and Ladoix-Serrigny. Hence some of the Corton and Aloxe Corton vineyards which partially fall within Ladoix-Serrigny may be used for both red and white wine.
