Aligote

Domaine A. et P. de Villaine

Bouzeron Aligoté 2013

Made from the other White Burgundy grape, Aligote. Made by probably the most famous name in Burgundy, Aubert de Villaine and his American born wife, Pamela. Aubert is the wine director and proprietor of the Domaine de la Romanee Conti. This is his own personal project. The wine itself:- Mid lemon in colour. Herbs, citrus and a touch of aniseed on the nose. The palate is very citric and mineral with a noticeable saline note. More palate weight than it had a few years ago. Medium minus Acid. Drinking well now and no need to cellar any further. Great winemaking at an affordable price. — 6 years ago

Very nice white burg, especially for the price. Good example of the aligote grape's potential when done right. Mouth filling with waves of flavor, quite precise, excellent acid and minerality. — 9 years ago

Les Saint-Jacques Rully Chardonnay 2015

Not the best for the price, but a good wine regardless. Quite shy on the nose, showing mostly malo and oak characters - reckon there's probably more new oak this year. Some floral features, palate delivers expectedly riper fruit characters and a very mineral finish. Balanced, but pricey for what it is. Go for the 15' Aligote instead! 😉 — 9 years ago

For all intents and purposes, this may just be the ceiling of greatness for Aligote. With a bit of age, there is no loss of freshness or energy, there is depth of aroma and flavor and plenty of oh so fine reduction and the finish goes on. What a beautiful wine tonight. — 8 years ago

The wallflower. Aligote is so underappreciated here. It's tart, so Americans don't like it. It's hard to pronounce, so Americans don't order it. It's not all that complex. But, it's an honest wine. And, if you need a high acid wine to go with a lemony meal, it's a great option. — 12 years ago
