Origin
Burgundy numbers seven regional appellations.
Amongst them, the Bourgogne Aligoté appellation designates wines produced exclusively from its eponymous grape variety. This ancient Burgundy variety, to which Chardonnay has been preferred for a long time, is currently recovering its previous noble standing.
Terroir
Our parcel is located in the « Pré des Longeroies », at an elevation of 230m. It faces north-east on soils of clay and silt.
Growing, vinification, ageing
From growing through to vinification without sulfites, each process is balanced as a function of the vintage to create the best wines and preserve the typicity of terroir. Ageing is in oak barrels.
Tasting
Taste analysis: on a palate marked by citrus fruits, the first impression is lively with good tension, then roundness coming through on the finish.
Aligoté is a fresh wine that accompanies food, from aperitif through to plat de résistance main courses. It will be especially appreciated with cold meats and at all times with seafood and even goat cheeses.
