The wine region of Bourgogne Aligoté
Burgundy's second historic white grape, long unloved then rehabilitated. Lively, taut dry whites with signature notes of lime, green apple, white flowers, fresh almond and a saline touch, vivid acidity and a crisp finish — the traditional base of Kir but increasingly serious single-parcel cuvées too. Direct, thirst-quenching style, served chilled with oysters, snails and goat's cheeses. ~1,700 ha, mainly in the Hautes-Côtes and Bouzeron (its dedicated cru).
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Interknot
Botanical term for the interval between two nodes or between two leaf insertions on a branch (see merithallus).
