Bourgogne Aligoté "Fusion" 2022 Domaine Petit Roy
The Bourgogne Aligoté "Fusion" 2022 from Domaine Petit Roy is a vibrant and authentic expression of the Aligoté grape, cultivated biodynamically in the heart of Burgundy. The grapes come from the renowned "Aux Boutières" parcel in Savigny-les-Beaune, planted in 1983. This terroir, characterized by clay-limestone and marl soils, imparts the wine with extraordinary minerality and freshness.
The vinification begins with direct pressing of the grapes, followed by gentle racking. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts for about two months in barrels, without the addition of sulfur. The wine is then aged for about nine months in used wooden barrels, and racked with the addition of a minimal amount of sulfur. Bottling is done without fining or filtration, thus preserving the purity and integrity of the wine.
In the glass, the Bourgogne Aligoté "Fusion" 2022 displays a bright straw yellow color. The aromatic bouquet is rich and inviting, with scents of yellow fruit such as peaches and apricots, accompanied by pronounced minerality. On the palate, the wine stands out for its lively acidity and immediate freshness. Flavors of yellow fruit integrate perfectly with saline and mineral notes, offering a clean and direct sip.
This Bourgogne Aligoté is a wine that best expresses the characteristics of the grape variety and the terroir from which it comes, resulting in a unique and fascinating tasting experience. Perfect to pair with fish dishes, fresh salads, or to enjoy as an aperitif.
