Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Bourgogne Aligote 2023

Description

Product Description:Bright, pure and finely etched. The 2023 Bourgogne Aligote from Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey captures the quiet brilliance of old-vine fruit shaped by the precision of one of Burgundy’s most exacting winemakers. From parcels in Chassagne-Montrachet and the Hautes Cotes de Beaune, this wine balances the supple texture of richer clay soils with the tension and minerality of high-altitude limestone plots. Fermented naturally and aged for 14 months in 350-litre barrels before a brief rest in stainless steel, it undergoes full malolactic fermentation and is bottled unfined and unfiltered. The result is a wine of crystalline focus, layered with citrus, green apple and white florals, carried by a fine saline thread. It’s a benchmark Aligote from a producer better known for his world-class Chardonnays, expressing clarity, depth and lift in equal measure. Tasting Notes NOSE – Crisp and lifted Lemon zest, pear and floral notes with subtle hints of brioche. PALATE – Fresh precision Medium-bodied and vibrant with taut acidity, citrus and orchard fruit over a chalky backbone. FINISH – Clean persistence Long and saline with mineral focus and invigorating energy. Reviews & Accolades A stunning success in 2023 vintage with crystalline precision and great energy.
