Tasting notes
From vines in Fixin and Volnay, the 2018 Bourgogne Aligoté exhibits aromas of pear, fresh bread and citrus zest. Medium-bodied, giving and accessible, it's moderately concentrated, with tangy acids and a charming, open-knit profile.

Hautes-Côtes fruit. Older vines than those that go into the Bogan. Stainless-steel and 500-litre oak maturation. Tank sample. Green apple and herbs, with a touch of flint. Crisp, crunchy and refreshing. Moderate length. (TJ)
The 2018 Bourgogne Aligoté is back after going missing in action in 2017. It has an attractive apple blossom and nectarine bouquet that is clean and pure. The palate is crisp on the entry and conveys orange peel and citrus notes. Not long, but lively, and it stays true to what Aligoté should be.
