2021 Anne Boisson Bourgogne Aligote
The 2021 Bourgogne Aligoté from Anne Boisson is a vibrant and pure expression of this underrated grape. Hailing from old vines situated in Meursault, this wine benefits from the renowned terroir of the Côte de Beaune. The 2021 vintage highlights a delicate and crisp profile, with a nose of fresh citrus, green apple, and white flowers, underscored by a compelling minerality. On the palate, it is lively and precise, with a taut acidity that gives way to a long, clean finish. This Aligoté is a beautiful testament to the Boisson family's meticulous winemaking and is perfect for enjoying on its own or with fresh seafood, oysters, or goat cheese.
