French Burgundy Aligote White Wine – David Troussel le

Discover David Trousselle’s exceptional 2021 Aligoté, a vibrant expression of Burgundy’s Hautes-Côtes de Beaune terroir. Crafted from 30-year-old vines perched at remarkable elevations near Orches village, this white wine captures the essence of its unique limestone bedrock – the very foundation of the cliffs above the vineyards. This distinct minerality forms the backbone of a truly captivating Burgundian white.

Experience a beautifully tense and lively palate, where rich texture meets vibrant acidity. Crisp citrus notes intertwine with pronounced mineral undertones, creating an enchanting complexity that defines this distinctive white Burgundy. While utterly delightful and quaffable now, patient enthusiasts will find rewarding depth emerging after a few years of careful cellaring.

At 12% alcohol, this Aligoté offers superb balance and versatility. It stands apart as a compelling alternative to more common Burgundy whites, delivering exceptional value and a pure expression of its high-altitude origins. Perfect for pairing with shellfish, goat cheese, or simply savoring its mineral-driven elegance on its own.
