Type: White Wine (Natural / Organic / Biodynamic / Minimal Intervention)
Region: Burgundy, France (Vin de France)
Grapes: 100% Aligoté
Alcohol ABV: 11–11.5%
Aroma:
A vibrant and expressive interpretation of Aligoté, showing aromas of lemon zest, grapefruit, green apple, and white flowers. Layers of chalky minerality, fresh herbs, citrus peel, and subtle honey notes add complexity. There is also a gentle “natural wine” character with hints of wild fermentation, giving the wine extra depth while maintaining a clean and energetic profile.
Palate:
Light to medium-bodied with striking freshness and precision. The palate delivers flavours of lime, green apple, grapefruit, pear, and saline minerals, supported by Aligoté’s naturally high acidity. A subtle waxy texture, gentle bitterness, and long mineral finish create a sophisticated expression that feels closer to a fine Burgundy white than a simple Aligoté.
The grapes come from carefully farmed old Aligoté vines (around 40–45 years old) and are harvested by hand. Fermentation occurs naturally with indigenous yeasts, followed by ageing in stainless steel tanks for approximately 9 months to preserve freshness and purity. The wine is bottled unfined, unfiltered, and without added sulphur, reflecting Yann Durieux’s low-intervention philosophy.
Yann Durieux farms organically and biodynamically in Burgundy, applying meticulous vineyard practices inspired by his previous experience working with Prieuré Roch. The vines are cultivated with a focus on soil health, biodiversity, and natural balance, allowing Aligoté to express greater depth, complexity, and terroir character.
