🏰 The 2021 Coche Dury Bourgogne Aligote is a testament to Jean-François Coche's exceptional winemaking, showcasing the 【purity and elegance achievable from the Aligote grape】. This white wine, crafted with minimal intervention and oak aging with regular bâtonnage, offers a fresh and precise profile with vibrant persistence. On the nose, it's wonderfully spicy and vaguely exotic, with notes of citrus confit, Granny Smith apple, and orange peel. The palate is crisp and refreshing, boasting a beautiful balance of minerality and citrus notes, leading to a clean, elegant, and persistent finish with a slight saline character.
🍴 This versatile Aligote is perfect with grilled seafood, oysters, and goat cheese. Its freshness and liveliness also make it an excellent contrast to richer dishes like sea bass baked in puff pastry, or a delightful pairing with charcuterie boards and light spring rolls.
🥂 An ideal choice for an aperitif, a seafood feast, a summer picnic, or any occasion where a precise, vibrant, and terroir-driven white wine is desired.
BACKGROUND
Coche-Dury, headquartered in Meursault, Burgundy, is famous for its highly collectible Chardonnay white wine. In fact, Coche-Dury’s Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru wine is consistently ranked among the 100 most expensive wines on Wine-Searcher. The total land area of Coche-Dury is just over 9 hectares (22 acres), about half of which is within Meursault. Coche-Dury's only Grand Cru wine is Corton-Charlemagne, but several other wines from the domaine are also of particular importance.
