2022, Domaine du Comte Armand, BOURGOGNE, Aligoté

$52

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. 88-90 Neal Martin, Vinous (2023).

The 2022 Aligoté has partly been racked to tank and is partly still in its original demi-muids. It is pale in colour, with lively fresh fruit on the nose, fresh and lively at the back, indeed quite trenchant. 13% natural alcohol is balanced by high acidity. *** 86-87 Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy (2023).

Drinking Window: 2024 - 2030
