Bourgogne Aligoté 2020

  • Behind its pale lemon color, our Bourgogne Aligoté 2020 displays a very rich nose made of candied apricots, white fruits, and acacia. The palate is round with a pleasant minerality and the finish leaves refreshing saline notes. Rich and complex, this is a fascinating Aligoté not to be missed.

  • Although it is still widely misconceived to be less noble than other local grape varieties, Aligoté has prospered throughout Burgundy since the 17th century thanks to the diversity of the region's terroirs. This white grape grows mainly on limestone-rich soils, composed of marl and clay. The rich and round texture with a mineral edge shows the capacity of this typically Burgundian variety.
