The wine region of Bourgogne Aligoté

This regional appellation is the only one to mention a Grape variety name. There are as many aligotés as there are areas in Burgundy where they are made: in Pernand, they are supple and Fruity; in the Hautes-Côtes, they are fresh and lively; finally, those of Bouzeron have acquired a distinct appellation. This Dry white wine is a Decanter wine to be drunk Young. It is ideal for the kir, an aperitif composed of blackcurrant cream and fresh white wine.


The wine region of Burgundy

Burgundy has a Complex and comprehensive appellation system; counting Premier Cru and Grand Cru titles, the region has over 700 appellation titles for its wines.
