Aligote is not my usual first stop, but a pedigree maker w age & a Becky Wasserman pick for under 25$ gets me revved up. The precision & balance is what gets me, while the varietal presents with some viscosity & sweetness- lovely. 12.5% alcohol. Scott imports

Ананас, зеленая груша, маракуйя, белый персик, неспелый нектарин, зелёная смородина, оливки, затхлая колодезная вода, тонкая солоноватость в аккуратном минеральном послевкусии. Легко, с капелькой маслянистости, оживляемой бодрой, но не торчащей кислотностью. Лежащие во фруктовой основе тропические ноты не чрезмерны, ощущаются на полутонах. Свежо и ярко, довольно просто, не слишком типично. Очень легко пьётся.

Remarkable. It's young, but this is a much richer expression of Aligote than others I've tried. I'd almost be tempted to say it's not totally true to the varietal. But that's not bad. This wine has layers of petrol and asparagus and mushrooms, and it's acidic but perhaps not zingingly bright like some others.
