Bourgogne Aligoté

A rustic, funky, wild even, aligoté in a low intervention style. The nose shows a cereally thing that I always find in good aligotés, some hay, cinnamon, pear, white pepper, and a bit of oak too. It's wild and funky, in a good way. The palate is juicy, acid driven, shows some peary notes, some white pepper, some width, a good grippy tannic impression in the rear and a long, acid driven finish, with some peary and hay notes, and that white peppery note in the very end. It's one of the very best alligotés I've had and definitely not one for pouring liqueur into and making Kir.
