2023, Domaine Marquis d'Angerville, BOURGOGNE, 'Aligoté'The Marquis d'Angerville's spin on this "rising in popularity" grape. Dry, elegant and perfectly balanced. A great aperitif and very well priced. Pale colour, a classical Aligot bouquet with its slightly acrid grape skins. What has changed is the degree of flesh in the middle of the mouth and the ripeness of the finish. Some lemon and orange blossom notes are now more prevalent than lime. Otherwise, baked apple. In bottle. Drink from 2025 2028. *** 87

A blend of mostly Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc vine genetics with a small percentage of Sauternes Sémillon genetics
