La Vigne Mouton, Bourgogne Aligoté 'Granit 35', 2023

£36.00

Bourgogne Aligoté AOC

100% Aligoté

Organic & Biodynamic

From a single parcel in the Cortambert commune, pink jurassic granite on blue clay subsoil, South-West facing.

Harvested by hand, slow whole-bunch pressed. Fermented in enamel lined tanks for 10 months at low temp. Bottled once fermentation complete.

Textured, richy and oily. Spiced quince, pear and a long, herbal finish. This is more comparable to Bouzeron and is leagues ahead of so much of the lean Aligoté that comes out of Burgundy.

Margaux and Valentin met whilst studying Viticulture and Oenology in Beaune, quickly falling in love with each other and the idea of one day working together in their own vineyard and cellar. Through mutual friends they were put in touch with a couple based in Mâcon-Bray looking to hand over their biodynamic domaine to a new pair of hands. After a few years of working collaboratively and learning together, Margaux and Valentin took over fully in 2019 and produced their first solo vintage in 2020. Keen to leave nothing behind but their wines, they are enthusiastic stewards of the land, plants and animals that are under their care.
