Henri Germain Bourgogne Aligote 2022

“The 2022 Bourgogne Aligoté comes from a single parcel in Meursault and is one-quarter aged in barrel. It has a very pure and perfumed bouquet. The well-balanced palate has a keen line of acidity and a nice sharpness here with a “pointed” finish. Very fine.” 88-90 points, Neal Martin, Vinous

This rare Aligoté is drawn from a single plot of vines planted in 1977 in a terroir known as Les Plançons in Meursault. The grapes were harvested in late August (the last to be picked, one week after the Chardonnay), and the wine aged in barrique and tank for 12 months. It was then blended and rested for five months in tank before being bottled. It’s a superb Aligoté—textural yet vibrantly fresh.
