Region: Burgundy 

Variety: Aligote

What's in the glass: The Bourgogne Rouge En Gerlieus vineyard is right beside the fabulous aligoté, with vines between 50 and 70 years old. In the ’22, they used only 15% whole clusters, yet this produces a slightly more structured wine. It will need a fair amount of time to fully reveal its intense, cool fruit and stony terroir. There is some reduction; note: Some of the previous wines have required a thorough decanting to shed the reduction. Cassiopée is working to eliminate this issue when the wines are still young – decanting does usually take care of it. 88 points, Steen Öhman, Winehog. 100% Aligote.
