Aligoté wines are dry white wines, lively and fruity. They are bottled early in order to preserve their freshness and fruitiness. Their colour can be likened to white gold and their perfume is reminiscent of grapes and green apples. Their liveliness and acidity make them excellent as an appetizer or aperitif.
They are used in a traditional Burgundian kir (a blend of blackcurrant liqueur and white wine) and are ideal with snails or cooked ham with parsley.
100% Aligote

Anne Gros Bourgogne Chardonnay 2019
The first harvest was in 1996 for this cuvee. This was an experimental white wine, our first encounter with Chardonnay. An experiment we pursued with a new plot in 2016. Ripeness is usually excellent with decent yields. A fat wine with honeyed aromas of apple and pear. Great acidity keeps it from being heavy. The wine is aged for 12 months in 500 litres barrels (30% new oak) imparting notes of fresh butter and hazel nuts. The final result gives a wine that can be paired with fish and meat in white sauces, quenelles, foie gras… An experimental pairing with fresh truffles or even sweet spices would be interesting. 100% Chardonnay Learn more at Domaine Anne Gros : https://www.anne-gros.com/....../bourgogne-blanc-2 Stock Till Last.
