  • Goedhuis, December 2023

    Recent vintages in Burgundy represent a new era for this once overlooked grape variety. Climatic change has been its saviour, and its extraordinary individuality means many growers are encouraged to plant a few rows in vineyards that were once the preserve of chardonnay in the Côte de Beaune. The Comte Armand Aligoté shows off its qualities to great effect. Vinified 50% in stainless steel and 50% barrel, it combines a perfume of white fruits with a weight of yellow fruits. A glycerol like volume, richly layered with mouth-watering uplift of flavours on the finish.

  • Neal Martin, January 2024, Score: 88-90

    The 2022 Bourgogne Aligoté was picked two weeks after the main harvest and racked just before the 2023 picking. It has quite a primal bouquet with grapefruit and Conference pear, gaining delineation in the glass. The palate is well-balanced with a lovely sense of "rondeur," slightly lower in acidity than last year but with commendable purity on the finish. Lovely. Drinking Window: 2024-2030.

Clos des Épeneaux is Pommard’s most celebrated climat. The 5.23 hectare monopole has been in the Comte Armand family since 1828. Paul Zinetti took over from Benjamin Leroux as régisseur in 2014, and is rising to every challenge at this small, characterful domaine. They also have small holdings in Volnay and Auxey Duresses and, while these wines have the distinctive character of quintessential Côte de Beaune, they are also some of the most sophisticated, nuanced expressions you might taste across these villages. An understated use of new oak matches the textured fruit, and gentle handling in combination with intuitive biodynamic practices afford these wines both strength and delicacy. The domaine has begun to noticeably outpace its neighbours and redefine how the finest terroir of Pommard is capable of not only power but elegance as well.Read less

Region

Bourgogne Aligoté

Regional appellation for white wines made exclusively from the Aligote grape. Unlike Chardonnay these are best drunk young, with fresh notes of green apple and citrus fruit. The best wines tend to come from the Cote Chalonnaise around Bouzeron. This is the classic wine used in making Kir with Creme de Cassis from up the road in Dijon.
