About This Wine
Ali what? Aligoté is Burgundy’s bright, high-acid secret. For decades it lived in Chardonnay’s shadow, overlooked and underestimated. But for Burgundy lovers, it’s a chance to taste wines from top producers without paying Village, Premier, or Grand Cru prices.
This is the grape that gave birth to the Kir. Back in the day, French aristocrats found Aligoté’s electric acid too sharp on its own, so they added a splash of Crème de Cassis. Boom, the Kir was born.
Today, Aligoté is having its moment. Climate change, careful farming, and a new respect for the grape are letting its full potential shine. Think floral aromatics, zippy acidity, and pure mineral expression. Sommeliers and Burgundy obsessives are lining up to taste these wines, and now you can too.
Come join Josh sip the benchmarks, the cool kids, and the new kids on the Aligoté block. This isn’t Chardonnay’s sidekick anymore, it’s a star in its own right.
