- Background
- Aligote is a grape type. This is the “other white grape” in Burgundy. It makes a simple, clean, and delicious wine. Do drink it young. Anybody who likes Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc will probably enjoy the Aligote even more. A great aperatif wine and another top value from Alain.
- Tasting Notes
- Like a Pinot Grigio with great body. Some minerality, with fresh, lemony fruit and light elements of apple skin and hay.
- Food Pairings
- Shellfish, seafood, salads, aperatif -- much the same as you'd serve with Sauvignon Blanc.
