Wines made from Aligoté grapes of Moldavie
Discover the best wines made with Aligoté as a single variety or as a blend of Moldavie.
Lively, taut whites with chiselled acidity and an airy palate, with aromas of lemon, green apple, white flowers, fresh almond and chalky notes. Typically saline finish. Star of Bouzeron AOC (the only single-variety aligoté appellation) and Bourgogne Aligoté AOC. Also used in Crémant de Bourgogne and the iconic kir cocktail (with blackcurrant liqueur). Historic Burgundian variety, a cross of pinot noir × gouais blanc, half-sibling of chardonnay.
Ancestral vineyard with identity grapes. Fetească Neagră, great Moldovan red reference: deep with notes of ripe plum, black cherry, spice and tobacco, melted tannins. Lighter, more floral Rară Neagră (Băbească). Dense tinctorial Saperavi.
