🏰 The 2020 vintage for Bourgogne Aligoté generally produced wines with good intensity and a refreshing character. Aligoté, often considered Burgundy's 'other' white grape, is gaining recognition for its crisp, expressive, green fruit, herbal, and mineral-driven profile, often with citrus and floral characteristics. Arlaud's Bourgogne Aligoté 2020 is likely to embody these qualities, offering a vibrant and zesty experience. Expect notes of ripe peach, pear, apple, and lemon zest, complemented by hints of fresh grass and wet rock. These wines are typically made to be drunk young, showcasing their lively acidity and freshness. 🍴 Bourgogne Aligoté is incredibly food-friendly due to its high acidity and mineral freshness. It's an excellent match for raw oysters, mussels, shrimp, and grilled fish. Its acid-driven structure also makes it ideal for young, fresh goat cheeses like Crottin de Chavignol, green salads with lemon dressing, or traditional French bistro dishes such as fish terrine and quiche. It can also stand up to the saltiness of oysters and strong goat cheese, and surprisingly, does not overpower salads or steamed vegetables. 🥂 This wine is perfect as an aperitif, especially in a classic Kir cocktail with a splash of Crème de Cassis. It's also a fantastic choice for a casual seafood dinner, a summer picnic, or any occasion where a refreshing and versatile white wine is desired. 【Burgundy's crisp and versatile 'other' white】
