On the nose and palate, expect vibrant notes of lemon, green apple, white flowers, and wet stone, with a faint herbal lift. It presents a light to medium-bodied profile with crisp, driving acidity and a clean, mineral-edged finish. Other tasters have noted hints of smoke, crushed rocks, riper yellow fruit, and a touch of bitterness, praising its subtleness and elegance. Maison Meyer itself describes this Aligoté as having great fruit, complexity, and a long finish, with ripe citrus fruits and herbs.
