Jean Claude Boisset Bougogne Aligote Les Moutots Duo

Burgundy is always made from Chardonnay, right? Except when it isn’t....Then it's something else, something lighter, something tailored for the shoulder seasons, when you want something crisp and refreshing. Then it's Aligote. Aligote is Burgundy’s other great white grape, and this is a SUPERB Aligote. This wine is grown at a vineyard in Chorey-lès-Beaune where the vines are 50 years old, their roots seeming to draw complexity out of the soil. Fruit forward yet mineral-driven, layered with scents of beeswax and honey, its texture like silk tulle. It rested for 16 months, undisturbed, in oak barrels (30 percent new), where it developed that silken texture without losing its delicate perfume of white flowers and herbs.
