Tasting Notes

Aroma

The nose evokes acacia, white flowers, and hazel-bordered country lanes. Flinty mineral notes and lemon complete a classic bouquet, to which may sometimes be added a discreet touch of honey or warm croissant.

Palate

In the mouth its meaty, well-built body and luxurious vivacity brings out the distinct personality of the Aligoté grape.

Vinification

Handpicked harvest. Traditional fermentation in French oak barrels (3 to 5 years old) for 18-20 months followed by 2-3 months in stainless steel tanks.

Cellaring Potential

3-6 years according to the vintage year.

Food Matching

This super premium Aligoté contributes lemony notes to oysters and matches their saltiness with its steady minerality. The same goes for cod roe (taramasalata), and crustaceans, steamed or in a cheese sauce. Its fullness enhances veal or poultry in white or cream sauce, and a mushroom risotto would also respond nicely to its aromatic persistence. It may also be served as a pre-dinner drink with savory puff pastries (gougères), or with dishes such as the burgundian specialty of cold ham with parsely (jambon persillé),mixed salads, or quiches. It goes perfectly well with most types of goat cheese, as well as with Beaufort, Comté or Cîteaux.
