Comte Armand Bourgogne Aligote 2022

Critical Acclaim: 90 pts Vinous.

Winemaker's Tasting Notes: Stemmed from the assembling of a young tenyear old vine located in Volnay and a very old ninety -year old vine of Aligoté known as ‘doré/golden’ located in Meursault. One can find a very beautiful balance between the freshness and vividness, coming from the young vine combined with the richness and precision of the Aligoté Doré from the old vine. An Aligoté that could easily rank high on the Winelist of the best gourmet restaurants.

"The 2022 Bourgogne Aligoté was picked two weeks after the main harvest and racked just before the 2023 picking. It has quite a primal bouquet with grapefruit and Conference pear, gaining delineation in the glass. The palate is well-balanced with a lovely sense of "rondeur," slightly lower in acidity than last year but with commendable purity on the finish. Lovely."- Vinous.
