    42,10 €

    Aligote is the least known white grape in Burgundy, the rarest and most misunderstood. At a time when white Burgundies ought to be sold as symbols of social status, Aligote is a soft landing in reality. A reminder to us all that the top producers of this sensational place called Burgundy are not rock stars. They still have their boots dipped in the mud to produce great wines. Domaine de Villaine is owned by Aubert de Villaine, Burgundy's top producer and owner of the legendary Domaine de la Romanee Conti. Bouzeron Aligote is the perfect way to drink top Burgundian talent at reasonable - for the region - prices.

    More info

    The work of Pierre de Benoist, nephew of Aubert de Villaine, with Aligote is truly captivating and a benchmark for the grape. Bouzeron is the only village in Burgundy that preserves the appellation of origin and its best limestone slopes exclusively for this variety. Domaine de Villaine's Aligote receives the same care as the estate's finest Chardonnays. Which means organic certification in the vineyard and biodynamic practices, leading to minimal intervention and a hands-off approach in the winery. Vinification is done in old oak foudres (high volume barrels) and the mineral dimension of the wine on the nose is enhanced by the excellent lemon fruit. The palate is rich, creamy and round with a lively mouthfeel that makes the wine surprisingly easy to digest and balanced.

      2003 - Loire - 500ml

      On the one hand, great aromatic and flavour concentration, intensely oily sensation and richness in the mouth. On the other hand, excellent range, air and freshness. Multi-layered flavours and aromas, notes of quince, toast, caramel, along with strong dry-fruit elements. Richly sweet but with terrific lift and spirit leading to an exciting finish with...
